I found a deal on a Richmond 6speed. I was going to put a Tremec in as they are supposed to be so much easier, and less modification. But- this is such a good deal- I might just have to use the Richmond instead. Anyone- have pics of one installed, and any help with mods that will need to be done? Thanks-

Have to cut the floor, move the shifter hump back, cut out the torsion bar crossmember and re-place it. Fairly easy stuff for a street rod type builder to handle.

After your done you'll wished you installed a Keisler TKO 5 or 6 spd instead, ...goodluck


This is the DougNash case vs the 833 4spd, but pretty much identical to the Richmond case, if not the same, their that close, 5 or 6 spd

UGH! Looks like it's cheap for a reason. I guess I'm not that interested in cutting the floor/hump/crossmember. Keisler it is-
