Five speed conversion
Would like to hear from those who purchased Driven Man's conversion. Specifically the bell housing supplied and how it fits the clutch slave rod and starter..
The slave cylinder, clutch fork and all of the Jaguar parts fit just fine. The quality is impressive.
I use a gear reduction starter which is smaller but I think there will be no problems with an OEM Lucas starter.
Hi yorkag,
Welcome to the community.
I have purchased a Driving Man 5 speed for my 68 FHC but have not installed it yet. When I purchased mine almost two years ago, it was pretty much the only one available, and I was at a point in the restoration that engine installation was eminent. Engine still not in the car. I do want to add that I purchased the Driving man 5 speed at the suggestion of a friend that had two cars with the 5 speed installed. One in his hot rod E-type street and every day driver, and the other in his racing E-type. He drove and raced both cars regularly without issues.
