Default t5 manual conversion

Just wondering if anyone in brisbane area would be interested in converting their auto falcon to a manual. I have a manual conversion kit that i was going to put into a friend's car but things have changed and now i am left with a t5 conversion i don't know what to do with. i am willing to do the conversion just to recoup cost of parts and when you consider the labour involved and money from sale of your auto this could be quite cheap. I currently drive an au xr6 which i have done the conversion to for the last 12 months with no problems. Cost would depend on your model of falcon.

Just to make it clear for everyone this will only fit in EA-EL 6's, that should save you some confusion.

use v8 flywheel, 6cyl clutch, 6cyl box, u need a modified bellhousing to make it fit a v8. alot easier and cheaper to do it this way for an 8 rather then find a proper v8 conversion.
