Cortina mk4 manual conversion

You will need pedal box, clutch cable, speedo cable (Sierra one if you use a T9 box as the Cortina 4 speed one is stupidly fucking tight on a T9 in a tina), starter, obviously flywheel/clutch/spigot.

I can't remember if the auto models still had the tube for the clutch cable on the firewall, if not you will need to drill the hole for the cable and weld on a tube.

The auto gearbox Xmember is different to the manual one, but if you turn it around backwards and redrill 2 of the holes (and possibly slot the other 2 a little) its the one you need to fit a T9 to a tina, if you go 4 speed you will need a 4 speed Xmemeber.

I can't remember if the Auto driveshaft is longer or not, if it isnt it will work with either box, but the rubber doughnut on these shafts are normally cracked and perished anyway so if you can get hold of a 1 piece shaft from a MK3 it would be a good idea.
