hey every one i was just wondering if someone knows something about a 1994 ford falcon EF sedan.

is the clutch (in an automatic) hydraulic or cable.?

what i am looking at doing (as a Project) is converting it from an auto to a manual, any one have any ideas?

You need a new bell housing, new set of peddals (brake, Clutch etc), new tail shaft and possibly a new diff ratio and posisble a new engine management for the manual.. Not a easy job..

Ive done the conversion on a EB and the clutch is a cable,they went to hydraulic in the BA series.

always check Ebay for T5 conversion kits

Diff ratio doesn't need to be changed, but it's always good to upgrade! ECU needs swapping to a manual one as mentioned.

Try to buy a whole conversion kit (tailshaft, g/box, pedal assembly, clutch, flywheel, bell housing, + others that I haven't thought of...) as it'll be cheaper than a T5 here, a flywheel there...

Heh, yeah, it's a bit of a sleepy place eh! I went to school with Matt & James (was in James' year level). Are you a relative mate?

Or are you talking about Jeff & (damn can't remember his sister's name) Dyer? Their old man used to run the local service station before it shut down. They have an XY I think, and an awesome FX ute. They've got taste in cars

you don't need the tailshaft or a manual computer, and you don't need to change the diff.

You will need t5 transmission and bellhousing, clutch kit, clutch cable, pedal box with clutch clevis and bushes, manual flywheel and a spigot bearing. That's about it.
