![]() I'd vote swapping out the pedals is the worst, and removing the automatic cooler lines and replacing it with the clutch hydraulic line is 2nd worst. Going from auto manual is worth it after it's all said and done, however it's ALOT of work and, at least for me, very very painful and frustrating. This whole thing is going to be a learning experience with an apparent steep curve. I have a do have a cheap MIG(at least it runs off of 220V) that I got at black Friday time two years ago, but have yet to fire it up. And probably aren't doing an auto to manual swap at the same time. People that say that swaps are cheap are people who had a lot of crap laying around to start with. I do have pedals, shifter and axles, thanks to a good friend, but I am still down on the hydraulics and a stock Getrag select cable. In my case? You thinks me rich? I am already freaking out about the $750 outlay for the 3500/F23/clutch/collection of parts that I recently acquired, plus a fancy custom shift cable (very nice). Being stamped helps with strength, but it just wasn't thick enough for me, because I'm giving myself some room for a possible turbo addition in the future. I just didn't have that much to spend on a mount, I would have the same issues others are having with the pre-88 cradles, and it's only 1/8" thick stamped steel. It's $125, which in your case Nick is money well spent.
