Re: Manual trans conversion question
Thanks. Yeah, I really wish that it could stay in the family, but after the numbers-crunching process, we just can't do it. The better half is still in school, I'm going back in the fall, and money's...

Re: Manual trans conversion question

Re: Manual trans conversion question
Thanks for the replies so far!:D

Greetings!
I'm looking for a good solid running engine for Paul Dexler's SVX. He's my father-in-law, and I'd like to get it running again. A bare long-block would be fine. The engine in his car is...
