Planetman, thank you for confirming my research to date on converting to manual trans using all Volvo parts. The issue now before me is that of finding sources for these parts. If you can help, please feel free to contact me direct by e-mail at mfitzinc@bellsouth.net or by phone (912)230-7867.
I would not mind swapping for a Tremic T-5 trans if the Volvo M-410 is not available. Same for converting the BW-35 to a AW70-71 A/T, or some other later overdrive equipped A/T.
If you confirm that you can help, I will check the crankshaft bolt pattern, I believe the vibration damper nut spec will indicate the flywheel bolt pattern, engine is original to car.
