Default Pedal change

Hello all I have a question I need answered...I have a 94gt convertible with a automatic transmission. My question is I will be switching it over to a 5 speed manual this winter. But I was wondering if I could put the pedal assembly for the 5 speed now and drive the can and then put the manual transmission in this winter. Thanks for the help

I dont see a problem with it. The pedals are probly the most difficult part of the swap though, and Id probly just do it all at the same time.

You can run the 5 speed pedals no problem, just let the clutch pedal hang to the floor or tie it up temporarily.

And yes, the pedals were one of the hardest parts to swap. Really didn't go that bad for me, but I had extra wrench's to throw at a moment's notice when needed.

You'll need to drop the steering column and remove the drivers seat, and you'll need a good ratchet with a wide selection of extensions and swivel joint adapters. And some Band-Aids....

And ALOT of patience....
