sorry for always asking but this time its final that i am doing the swap to my pulsar from a e16i to the ca18det swap. im having my cusin who says he can do the swap for me come do it in my house. he garuntees he can do it so i trust him plus i dont have to pay him lol. beside buying the engine and transmission is there anything else i might have to buy to get the engine in smoothly, or is it just remove the old one and in with the new one? and for the auto to manual conversion im guessing that i need to take thhat to a place or if my cusins knows can he do it himself?

If your cousin know what he's doing, it shouldn't be so bad. If he's shooting in the dark, he'll have his hands full and then some. Again, you will need the mounts from the pulsar and just about most of the stuff associated the pulsar's manual car to make your auto manual.
