[Roadsters] 5 speed...

[Pete Peters]

Not true. The -ONLY- 5-speed that will bolt up to a roadster R16 (1600) or U20 (2000) engine is the 5-speed that came with the 2000.

I read somewhere that a 280Z 5 speed will bolt right up. Is this true? Should 
be a lot of those laying around.

I have been doing some research on installing a 5 speed manual in place of the 
original 4 speed manual. I have a couple Z24 truck engines but I have read 
there is a driver side tilt vs a passenger side tilt on the 1600 L- series. Is 
there a five speed transmission that will fit my 1970 1600 besides the 
L-series 2000?
