Is it much to convert a 1990 turbo 740 to manual in $s?
My auto is fine but as I don't drive a lot I miss the gear change and
control a manual gives.
Is much of an effort and which manual box is best ?.
Any unusual problems I might encounter ?.

I've done it a couple times, each cost me about $350 including a new
clutch and took a long weekend but then I was lucky and found all the
parts I needed at the local U-pull yards.
