OK, I bought a used KA24E for my 90 240sx out of the same year from a guy doing the CA18DET swap. The only difference is that the one I just bought is out of an auto. I know I need to switch the flywheel from my original engine. I just got done taking the old engine out with the transmission attached so this job will be a lot easier. The problem is how would I go about taking the torque converter off. I didn't see any bolts and I noticed that there are a lot of welds on the torque converter. I don't know if it is suppose to be like this or what.

Another thing that I noticed is that my clutch pedal is stuck to the floor. Is this a problem maybe from my car sitting so long (15 months). Any help is appreciated. Oh and for the smart asses who say search, I just spent an hour doing so.

well if you can't see the bolts for the torq convertor and someone welded it on then you will prob have to have it cutt off. As for the clutch pedal. Check for fluid, check and see if the clutch master is leaking and the slave. If you have brake fluid in the floor board then it is your clutch master. If not then it prob is the slave located on the transmission.
