Trouble with converting Essex to 5 speed is bellhousing! Ultra rare 2.5 manual bellhousing is required or ultra expensive aftermarket alloy bellhousing. Cheapest option will be rebuilding the box you have.

some test driving recently has shown up that my 4 speed gear box is very (as in VERY) noisy especially in third gear.....but is fairly quiet in 4th........so i need a gear box a 4 speed will do but a 5 speed would be a real bonus.

a little research shows up that the fan switch on my Legerra was rated 107-97 degrees and not the 87-78 i was led to believe....the cooling system was trying to run too hat and at preasure as for a modern car....it now has a new fan switch.
