Default 6 Speed Conversion.

I would like to convert my classic to 6 speed with the view to running 400bhp+ (with new engine at a later date). If I should come across a complete wrecked car, what bits will I need?

I'm thinking - Gearbox, rear diff, prop-shaft and 4 x driveshafts.

Is there anything else I would need to buy? I don't want to be missing anything while I have the oppertunity to get it as a bundle as it were.

Any help greatly appriecated.

The box
R180 Diff for new age - R160 Diff for classic
Propshaft
Gearlever linkage
Stump shafts for front diff
Clutch operating fork & slave cylinder
Anti plunge bracket and bar.

Would strongly advise to budget for the box to be opened and for and dodgy syncros to be replaced.

Also you will need a pretty heavy duty 6 speed clutch
