Uh...what? How does a manual transmission work on a direct drive motor?

(And if you really want to do that, drop an electric crate engine in an 80s muscle car. I'm strongly considering it)

thatd be the case for all conversions on old cars that i know of tho

That's true. That's the price you pay for an 80's platform.
