244 manual pedal box.

howarddj · Apr 3rd, 2015, 13:17

I am about to buy a 1978 244 auto that i want to convert to manual.

is the pedal box the same in the older 244s and the later 240s?

if anyone has one drop me a message, thanks!

Hi Howard

just seen you're doing a gearbox swap and are discovering the various speedo issues.

Have a read of my thread on retro rides, I'm midway through doing this myself (currently using a GPS app on my phone)

Feel free to PM me for a phone number, or if you're local to E. Sussex come over for a chat (EDIT: you're not too far, I'm just outside East Grinstead)

still looking guys.

it looks like i could even get away with just using the clutch assembly bit and swapping the auto fat brake pedal for the thinner manual one.

anyone breaking a manual?
