Classic Mini Automatic to Manual Gearbox Swap




Here we go through the steps to convert a MkI Mini Van from an automatic gearbox to a manual gearbox. The Classic Mini Coopers with automatic transmissions have unique engine blocks - you can't just swap out the blocks from one to the other - the whole power unit must go and be replaced with a manual block and transmission. See the list below for some of the parts available at Mini Mania that we used in this swap.

Used Left Hand Pot Axle

Used Right Hand Pot Axle

Clutch Master Cylinder

Clutch Flex Line

CV Boots Kit

Manual Gearbox Engine Mounts

Used Rod Change

Pot Joints

MSSK Bottom Engine Stabilizer

You'll need a pedal box, too.
