          Hi Sloppy... may the 93 GT rest in pieces...let's see now...I know of about 8 of them, I have two, so 490 93 GT's to go and mine will be the only one!! lol

          Yep like the others say, search that auto to manual swap... it's been covered more times than you could imagine...

                  you have the two side by side so this makes the swap even easier . besides all the mechanical parts you also want the engine harness and ecu . then literally as you unbolt a part from one car . carry it over to the other and swap it . swapping to the GT harness eliminates any jumpering or wiring issues mentioned above
