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.

If you have any info on how to mod a 4spd to a 5spd shifter please post a link. from what I can see on EPS the part numbers and arms are all completely different
