Putting a Doug Nash (Richmond) 5 speed in a second gen bird is a BREEZE.
You don't even need to remove your factory console.
The Hurst shifter for that transmission fits real nice.
Nobody will even know you are running a 5 speed unless you tell/show them.
You will need a fine spline clutch disc & a TH400/ST-10 yoke.
The transmission mount is a bit further back so the rear crossmember holes (in subframe) become the fronts & you need to drill new ones for the back.
