i missed the manual so much. the el now has an ef xr6 t5 & ford clutch
 which has been in storage for ages, theres also an el xr6 ecu recently acquired for the conversion  many thanx to malwood and his wikid little billet cut pin thanx to one of the members for helping with wiring, even though there was still some issues, didnt let it crank 1st time, swapped wires around and she was fine. im short some parts atm, gearboot, and a gearnob...lol so ye im waiting on that, but my brother was a funny bugger and forced and made grooves onto the shifter and managed to secure the auto shifter on there....its funny, "its auto officer" pics in a tik

yeah yeah, I should have read it all, I started reading, went blah blah blah, where are the pics?
I'm just not a fan of manuals unless it is a sports car, I think the fairmonts should be autos. And yes, I own a manual falcon that used to be an auto.

I know that, that is why I wish I didn't convert it. I wanna sell my car and buy a manual. That said, my car is quick enough.

pffft only sports cars should have manuals bah. when you use the stock clutch like he has the manual is so easy to work with. everyone who drives my car including mechanics ИИИИИ about the super grippy clutch i have which really makes the xr6 feel sporty, but those ford clutches are butter.
