Wiring Loom & Gearbox

Hey ppl,
Couple of questions that I need help with
My car is going in to have it head gaskets done soon, and what I need to know is. How easy is it to change the loom that goes through the center of the engine (Cossie 24v)?
Also, is there a manual gearbox that would fit the cossie engines?
Cheers
Dan

Don't think the loom is that difficult, you would have to have the inlet manifolds etc off which of course you will do with the heads anyway. Think people have accessed the plugs without doing anything to the box but the last plug or two is fiddly.
There is a manual box that fits the 24v, think its the MT75 but someone will be along to confirm or give you a better option.
Cheers

I changed my loom without dropping the box or taking exhaust off. Fiddley, and small hands helps, but do-able. Some very long nosed pliers helps too. Give me a shout if you need any more specific help.
