I suspect that with enough effort you could install the type 3 AT in ANY type 
1. I don't think it helps much that the type 1 started out as an autostick. 
These are completely different animials. I'm sure Russ knows the details, but I 
suspect that it would be easier to just put in a standard MT, but I don't know 
if the clutch cable tube is there.

Neither the AT nor the MT would need the special oil pump that comes with the 
autostick. If you did this conversion you might want to just remove that pump 
and replace it with a standard pump.
