I finally got some traction this weekend my friend got the rust bucket running months ago but I've been fighting the pilot bearing for months finally got one in after ruining the first 3. Today I stabbed the manual transmission in and the shifter assembly is installed. I've got the wiring sorted out it was as simple as unplugging the auto wiring harness from the transmission and plugging in the manual one from the shifter assembly for reverse lights super simple one jumper block for the neutral safety switch. I need to install the drive shaft and the pedal set and clutch slave and then we should be close to running! Then the car needs other things fixed like the rear nitrogen canisters and the the intake/exhaust manifold are leaking. I have some non EGR manifolds to install also
