Apart from

*Gearbox - I assume ordinary T5?
*Clutch - Inc new clutch kit
* Manual ECU (EF-L XR8?)
* Manual Pedal Box - and clutch pedal

Is there anything else that I need for a manual conversion for the EF Ghia?

Also how much would you expect to pay someone (Rough indication) to do this, I have no time - and no equipment anyway...

Thanks..

Ford V8 T5.
sixes input shaft is too short

Manual gearbox loom
V8 T5, 6's are too short.
V8 T5 bellhousing
V8 Flywheel
spigot bearing
floor boot/bracket
shifter
Shifter boot/surround
ECU or J3 chip, J3 chip is much easier, works the same and cheap.

Depends on hourly rate, over here expect to pay someone $60 hour, 4+ hours work....

It's easy enough to do it your self, all you need is a torque wrench, spanners/uni joints and a jack/axle stands.

You can get a bellhousing to adapt i6 transmissions to a v8.

There is no difference in the boxes except ratios, except for the T series AU's and maybe AU xr8's and GT/Sprints (not 100%) which got t5z boxes.

Yeah thats a good point, make sure you get an E series box, otherwise you will have to do what i did and cut holes in your floor, new sandwich plate and shorten your driveshaft. As i put in an AU T5Z (by accident). Castlemaine Rod Shop (CRS, www.rodshop.com) do a bellhousing for the i6 box to V8 block, but i assume that moving the 6 box forward to suit the V8 would also make a difference to the shifter hole in the cabin.....opposite of the AU boxes.
