Though I do so enjoy getting flamed for not using the search bar I would like to let you know that I have. If you do a full search of for "manual transmission swap" nothing of use comes up. I do a search of just "manual" and I managed to come up with only one page with anything pertaining to the kind of information I am searching for.

https://mitsubishiforum.com/m_73401/tm.htm

And of course the first reply he got thier was also you flaming him for not searching first. I have searched and nothing comes up. He seems like he figured it out, though he never finished his post thier so I would no or not. My question is can it be done? Is it that hard? In most cars its not very difficult to swap an auto out for a manual, though I dont know much about this drivetrain. So I have come to you experts for any pertanent information that you could give. So if thier is any info, guides, or posts here of people that have done it could you please link it to me.

Thank you.
