G'day,
Currently operating the 1 series AU falcon and am sick of the auto tranny and looking at switching the lady to a manual. Just wondering if this has been completed before on this forum or if anyone has any advice for such a switch? Furthermore, if anyone has any tips on dealing with extreme paint peeling that would be great  the lady is looking real tired unfortunately and I am currently thinking about getting her re-sprayed.Regards, Dangerman |

No one to help out a punter in need i i presume you introduced yaself 1st?  i'm doing a AU2 swap from auto to manual ... have cutnshut a tailshaft to hopefully suit  . have a manual ecu, pedal assembly, engine wiring loom & gearbox waiting on me . . . . . . .......  paint peeling is most likely just the clear peeling off...  ps: AU manual box IS longer than the AU auto & EA/B/D/F/L auto/manual boxes |

They will run with no modification, but will idle high, and fans will run constantly. This can be remedied with a J3, or yes, there is a way of adding a resistor |
