That's not a Getrag but, the much older 5-speed that's based on an iron case 4-speed. I'm guessing that the shifter arms from any iron case 4-speed will work on this unit and, I've heard that the 4-speed's shifter can be modified to work too. Shift rods from an iron 4-speed would need to be modified and you'll have to fab a driveshaft and rear engine mount but, you'd have to do all that anyway.

The flywheel from a manual-equipped 616 should work just fine.
