Help with manual swap parts!!
Hey everybody,
im doing a tranny swap this season (finally) and i need help finding some parts. I know that these parts are all available through the dealership but as much as possible im trying to see if i can get it somewhere else since the dealerships down here charge an arm and a leg.
The major things that i need that I dont mind being used are:
-Clutch pedal assembly
-clutch reservior
-clutch hard and soft lines
-uncut si (ex) wiring harness - Check (Linsook)
-Cluster - check (Big)
Ive already called and visited scrapyards around here as well as ebay and so far have been unsuccessful.
Thanks for lookin!!

Rep Power: 0 isnt there like a site that lists all the wreckers in north america and you can search for specific parts in your area? i've seen it before but cant remember the site name.

Rep Power: 0 Thanks Eric, But im not worried about performing the actual swap, its getting the parts to do them and such.
The one thing that I have a question with is with relation to the manual tranny mount......do i need to weld that in place? What did u do? Im getting mixed info about this saying that i need to use a manual subframe. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Rep Power: 0 What I did about the transmission mount was I weld an extra piece so I could use my original sub frame. Me and civic_jdm both went to the same guy for the swap, and we both had it weld. I would recomended you get the sub frame if you don't like to weld, but It's gonna cost you alot for the frame unless you can find one in the junk yard. Regardless if it's safe to weld on to the frame. I had my swap done 1yr and a half so far the weld piece is still pretty hard, because when ever I do an oil change I check it but It seems fine.

whats the relative cost of this? and where do you find people to do work like this, also if you use the orignial cluster from an automactic can you just hook up a seperate tach for it?
