6 speed Lightning conversion.
I thought some of you would find this interesting.

Wow indeed. That's alot of time, money, and hassle... which IMO would have been better spent on the automatic to go faster: converter, valve body, clutches, etc...

And because rowing gears is always more fun than putting a car in 'D'

Ain't happening! I think it's cool from the tech aspect of it, and the fact that it's different, but I'll be going the route like Coupe was talking about eventually (converter, VB, 4x4 pan/filter, etc). For the amount of money spent on that conversion I could throw a Whipple and some other mods on mine. I'll bet that thing is a blast to drive one it hooks up though!
