I was reading that if u use the stock r32 motor and transmission mounts that u can buy the r32 cross member and it will bolt write up, and that there is no need to buy the conversion kit. Is this true and has anyone tried it, and how did it turn out????

thanks

Yes you can use the R32 crossmember. You'll prob. have to shim your hood for the sake of clearance though.
