The oil pan on a auto car is not the same as a 5 speed
but it will work, once you get the trans out and mated to the V8, you will see what I am talking about!
The Clutch- you will need the 5 speed flywheel! $$$
the flex plate from the auto will not work!
the clutch is a mix of things, 1)Disk is 5ktq, and the pressure plate is 3B.
Engine mounts- you will need both V8 mounts, and both 4kq chassis mounts need to move.
Cooling system- I used the V8 stuff. It will fit, the core support will need to cut and tweaked to fit.
Exhaust- the stock headers work fine, the right one needs to be cut and rotated, about 4" from the collector flange.
The M/C is in the way of the dist. I'll send you a photo off the set-up.
Oh, by the way the Hp/torque output is no big deal, I have well over 300k on my trans, It is a late 84, so it has 4:11. first gear is almost worthless!
Just have fun!
