I Got the FIRST Ferrari Gated Manual Swap Kit in the World for DIYers! (Plug and Play) 

To part 2 of the manual swap head here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7XVMEpWfknU.html

Fantastic, what a beautifully put together kit. Not only is it really simple but the manufacturer has made a decent effort to make the installation easy. Having all those bolts wired into the correct positions is just a well thought out detail. One of the best videos you’ve done so far Sam, hopefully it will give more people the confidence to tackle jobs like this.

This is the slickest Ferrari manual swap ever! No transmission removal, just bolt and shift! (Link to the kit details: bit.ly/3TNqh3J )

Now this is very cool! Thankfully there are people out there developing such a conversion. Can’t tell you how many listings there are for F1 tranny Ferraris when I want a manual. Thankfully this exists now. Might start seriously looking at some f430 listings! 👏🏻 Can’t wait for the next vid! 👍🏻

I have to admit Sam… I’m impressed at the brake pedal mod. It came out way better than I thought it would! 😂

Sam, you are an inspiration to old guys who like to wrench like myself. Love this channel.

Samcrac, Was that your impression of Doug demuro! Mods....and Miles...😆😆👏 Hilarious! Or is it!?🤔 The easiest swap conversation I've ever seen. Very cool! 😎✌

I have this kit in my car, albeit I did the full F1 pump removal option. George is a really great guy who's worked very hard bringing this to the people. Would recommend it to anybody. Glad to see you're enjoying yours.

That's neat how they put the hardware in place to make it that much easier. Guess I'm picking up an auto Ferrari 430 😊

How cool! That should be a standard, if you want a manual, easy!

Wow! This is just amazing from start to finish. Cant wait to see how this turns out :)

This is one of my favorite videos you’ve ever done Sam! I think that brake turned out pretty good. Nice one!

Thanks Sam for a cracking video and respect to the mod kit manufacturers who hav design edit so well.

I like this kit. Super easy install. Can't wait for the first drive. Thanks for the great variety of content.

This was such a great video. Awesome to watch. You made the kit look easy.

Well done Sam! One of the cleanest install/repairs you've ever done

Very cool conversion! Great to see more cars being rescued from the F1 system.

OH! Can't wait for the rest of this. Really interested in perhaps doing this to my car as well.

Wow! So cool!!! Thinking we are going to see a lot more gated shifter Ferraris on the road in the near future!!

It’s amazing that this was a Ferrari diy friendly project. Just to change the windshield wiper alone on a Ferrari you would usually have to drop the engine. Great content as always. Can’t wait for the follow up.

That kit is Legit!

Awesome it's so good something has been made so easy to convert love it

that kit looks absolutely fantastic..... definitely looking forward to seeing you finish of installing the kit.....

I love how its so simple. No hassle besides cutting that brake pedal. And even that is easy.

Great kit and even better video.. Cannot wait to see the next part. Thanks Sam!

Not that many years ago there was much hate for gated shifters and now they are back in fashion.

Dude I love your channel. It's great how much variety you have. I doubt I will ever own a Ferrari but I'm a nerd when it comes to DIY car videos

When I saw no transmission removal, I thought, Bluetooth? 🤔

Awesome kit for a gated manual. Amazed that the chassis is just plug and play... Thanks for the video

Wow that looks awesome!! Great video Sam, looking forward to seeing you grabbing gears in the 360

Great video. Entertaining channel and i like the way you use cars as props . Well done.

Excellent work Sam! I love the fact that you can always reverse the process and this is an extremely DIY friendly project.

Wow what an amazing install, you cut that brake pedal perfectly cant wait to see the finish

Spent the beginning of Fathers Day weekend bingeing your Ferrari 360 videos. I really enjoyed them all.

anxious to see the other videos that put the shifter in the console , great video sir . excellent .

Looks like a beautifully engineered kit, where the makers have thought of all the snags and not left it to the buyer.

Did this in my Maserati 7 years ago.

That's a very cool addition to you Ferrari also you did a good job matching your brake pedal to the clutch pedal

That kit appears to be amazing quality. Great explanation of install.

One of my favourite videos so far. Good stuff Sam!

Well done and it's going to be a whole lot of fun!!!

Awesome video! 🔥 Very interesting conversion kit. Now I only need Ferrari and conversion kit.

Reminds me of when the UK show wheeler dealers converted an M3 to a manual. Great premise for a video. Nice work 😊

This kit is awesome, i Manual swapped my e36 m3 and it was more work because the transmission had to be replaced. Awesome you are doing this to a ferrari

Nice job fella. I'd just leave it like that - with three pedals and an F1 transmission...confuse the Hell out of the next buyer. Looks like a top-quality kit though.

Nice work in that accelerator pedal! Looked like a perfect match!

It looks like the brake pedal would have been fine without cutting it? I bet this video sold a bunch of kits for the builder BRAVO Samcrac, this is really cool... AGAIN!

Great video! Impressive step-by-step walk through! 👍

This is very cool! It will be interesting to see what needs to be done to the ecus.

I was skeptical of the brake pedal chop but it came out perfect. Looks factory. Stoked for the rest of this series

Most cars come from the factory with all possible configurations. It simplifies the manufacturing process. Looks like these conversion parts are well made. Can't wait to see you hook the clutch line up to the gear box.

Wonderful swap, the Doctor S kit really takes care of the massnual enthusiasts, kudos to them. Lastly, I really like the shirt you were wearing! God Bless

Before I looked at the price for this kit, I was running some numbers in my head as to what it would be worth to me and $2500 was what I was thinking. $12,000 is crazy but I guess still less expensive than the factory premium.

Wow great content Sam, looking forward to this one. Don’t usually comment but I’m really enjoying this 👌🏻

Like that handy little tool for tight spaces ! Very nice conversion kit, looks factory

Gated cars are so beautiful! That kit looks awesome! Way to go!

This is truly a revolutionary, game changing kit. Dr. S is making gated Ferraris so much more attainable. Excited to see where this project goes!

Great video, just a word of caution, I noticed that you shaped the aluminum brake pedal with the bench grinder. You might already know but I wanted to mention for other viewers, the aluminum embeds in the grinding wheel and when you grind a ferrous material it heats up the aluminum and the grinding wheel can explode. I would not want you or your step-mom to get hurt. Love the videos.

Nice video Sam great conversion kit aswel

Awesome kit! Hope to see more cars converted over to manual from F1

Great kit and great how-to video!

Yes, very cool 👍🏾 Not that I could ever afford one, just fascinated to know that changing the transmission can be done👌🏾

Wouldn't be convenient to place a washer between both pedals' axel?

Wow -- that brake pedal turned out a *LOT* better-looking than I thought it would in the beginning. I honestly thought it was going to *look* like a brake-pedal that had been hacked up -- but it really turned out quite nice! You can tell it's modified, but only if you look closely. Well done!

great video!! looks like a fun install

I’m on the list for the Dr. S kit. I’m just hoping you post the rest of the installation before I get mine so I have a bit of reference to assist me in my installation process.

The kit company should use this instruction video with the kit. Excellent camera work and simple instruction! A++++

I Always enjoy Sam's videos! Thank you Sam for the heard work and great job recording videos and working on the cars for your fun channel! It's not easy recording while trying to get the job done on the car. It takes three times as long if not more at times. But you didn't do the whole job on this Manual swap/conversion! You only did the pedals. What about the the shifter and electronics that will have to be changed over?? I also wanted to say I've tried to sigh up to "Mods and Miles" but it Won't Let me!! I feel Gypped! LOL. I've tried three times to make it work but it just shuts me out. It's probably got something to do with the fact that I live in Canada but no where has it been written or mentioned that the contest (Alex's give away) is for USA folks only so.....What's the goof my friend?? LOL.??

Beautiful kit!!! How awesome 👌. I've been dreaming of doing the same thing. ❤😊🎉

Dude, great vid. You definitely no serious fabricator. That grinding sound was the sound of a timid amateur. But nice job on that brake pedal, looks fabulous.

Great video. What an amazing kit!!

Best video in a LONG time Sam. Keep it up. No more shenanigans.

Good job Sam,looks like a pretty cool kit and no to bad to diy

The "Mods and Miles!" Bit had me cracking up LOL. Take that, Doug Demuro!

Super cool kit, really awesome that this is available!!

I love the gated shifter. It's my favorite thing about Ferraris. Except for the sound of the engine. (Or maybe it is my favorite thing about them.)

Part of the reason a manual mechanism conversion on a Ferrari increases it resale value, even being an aftermarket mod, it's because it increases the reliability of the car. In clutch wear, as having less hydraulics and electronics with the gearbox prone to failure.

Great project, Sam! I probably would have cut the pedal in similar fashion, but after cutting, I probably would have used a flappy sanding disk on the grinder instead of the grinding disk. You'd have more smooth and gradual shaping ability compared to the aggressive tendencies of a grinding disc. Just a different approach. Thx for sharing this great project!

Definitely want this. I don’t hate the F1 but this would make the car quite fun. Thanks for sharing this 😀

Awesome! Can't wait for the next one in this series!

So brave!! I know I’d of botched that right up!! Looks great!!!

I love this!! I wish there were more kits for other cars like the current generation of the Audi R8!!

To get the shine off and texture it like the other pedal use course sand in a sand blaster.

Dude, your are a HARDCORE DYI. I've been watching now for about 7 months and I've gotta tell ya, This is some KOOL stuff.

Good job bud . Love your videos 👍👌

Amazing! Anyone complaining about the price hasnt been following the price of these kits the past several years..Theyve gone from expensive to absurd to NLA to DIY...Welcome competition.

Great. I have done this on on old Audi with factory parts and the body was already pre-drilled etc. Just lubricate in between both pedals so it doesnt squeak in the future.

What a great job. Well done

Looks amazing Sam !!!!

This absolutely brilliant, definitely one of your best videos!

Like a Boss Sam!! You made that look easy Mr. 😝👍

This is the most hands on I’ve seen Sam do himself in years. 😂

Nice looking kit and well engineered.

Best DIY project of the year Bro! 👏🏽💯

Great video showing how even an average Joe could do such a swap. And you complete a project, something Richie Rebuilds could take notes on….and I never heard you complain about how big of a project it was etc. etc. 😂🤣😂

Love all his videos keep up the good work sam

Very cool Sam, now you need to convert the blue one to manual aswell. 👌

I actually liked my SMG2 in my M3. I get manuals sure but I don’t get why they are so much more expensive! Well done guys for making this work so easily. But a single clutch auto now!

Can't wait to see and hear this thing pullinnn :D
