Im looking to convert my 1983 733i (e23) from the factory 3 speed automatic to a 5 speed manual. The 5 speed was an option on the 733, but rare. As the e24 and e23 cars share the same big 6 engine, I assume that the transmission will bolt right up, driveshaft included.

What price would I be looking at for a used 5 speed, with clutch, linkage, etc for a full conversion?
