Anyone heard of someone using one on a 5 speed? i know that no one really makes a kit for it but im sure you could modify an automatic tranny cooler to work. anyone have any ideas?

There really isn't a pump to move the fluid around in a manual. So you'd need to rig up a pump to move it around.

In an auto the fluid moves the car and is under high pressure. The gears are kinda bathed in it in a manual.

I'm sure you could rig something but but it'd be worthless unless you roadraced A LOT.

Even road racers don't bother with this. If you are worried about heat build up just run better fluid. Your time would be better spend putting a cooler on the rear end it gets hot pretty easily after a few laps on a track.
