Richie_k83 Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 As above, does anyone know the under head length and thread sizing on the Clutch Cover bolts on a W58? Also, does anyone know whats involved when using an Auto ECU with a Manual Conversion (if anything) Any help welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrosixfour Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 (edited) Clutch cover bolts are M8x1.25 as far as I can recall and are pretty short, 20-25mm at most, I'd say Richie. The ECU needs to be tricked into thinking it's in Park in order for the car to start. I followed Dude's how-to guide on an auto to 6-speed conversion, the wiring segment for the starter inhibitor is the same for all. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?196754-6-spd-conversion-how-too/page5 Some people report a problem after doing the rewiring, where the engine will not rev above 4k, which is a safety feature on an auto when in Park. Personally I had no trouble. Edited April 14, 2016 by pedrosixfour (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
