Tom, It'll probably cost you more for a few reasons: 1. The entire gearshift linkage must be changed. 2. Don't forget the starter inhibitor switch that requires you to be in Neutral or Park to start the engine. 3. You'll need a different flywheel (since the torque converter is, in general, used as a flywheel in auto transmission engines), clutch pedal, hydraulics for the clutch (Master and slave cylinders and hosework). 4. There's probably more than in the list. Sorry, Conor Daly tom <hip82nopsamcom> wrote in article <708oc8$k1h$1nopsam1.exit109.com>... > I'm due for a new auto transmission on my '87 turbo.
