I bought this 1978 Malibu in 2023 in Missouri with 33,000 original miles. It’s 3.3L V6 coupled with a TH350 automatic was not going to win any races, however I stayed cool last summer with factory A/C. But the automatic had to go. After researching online and word of mouth, my friend said he had good luck with SST. I contacted them and bought the TKX 5 spd G-body auto to manual kit. After all winter, it now sports a tame LS 6.0L, with the TKX spd transmission, Ford 9” with 3:24 gears, and Dakota Digital gauges. Although the V6/Auto combo was interesting, this is now fun. That TKX transmission shifts so nice, Thanks SST for all your help and making the auto/manual conversion possible.
