Default Hello to all!

I currently have an 86 XJS Coupe, enjoying the fact that I can still do all the work. I would like to install a 5 speed, but I'm also thinking of getting an XK8 and converting that to manual, even though proprietary electronics are my worst fear. Like everything, it all depends on time, money, and energy. I grew up loving the e-types but recognize a little improvement since then. Conversations online are an excellent resource to which I will regularly contribute when I can.

Welcome to the forum,

Good to have you with us.
I expect you will get plenty of opinion on your gearbox plans.

If you haven't already done so you should add your car details to your signature to help others to help you.

Welcome to the forum,

Both mods can be done - as you say, time and money.

Be interesting to follow plans and progress.

Graham
