Well, the autotragic finally bit the bullet and decided to pack it in while i was trying to merge onto the highway last week. More specifically the front pump seized and blew the flex plate apart around the mounting flange to the crank.

So what better reason to do a 5 speed manual conversion!

This forum has been a monuments help with part numbers, pictures, how-to's and the like. It made finding all the right parts a relatively painless process. So thanks to everyone who had already asked all the questions I was going to lol.
