My friend is calling me with questions about his 5-speed swap and i don't quite know the answers, but I hope someone here might.

1) He thinks that I might have brought the wrong transmission mount (not crossmember) with me to Omaha. If I recall, the manual mount and auto are the same, no? Just need someone to confirm this.

2) Also, I did happen to bring his speed sensor with me... Is it all right for him to drive without the sensor (Though a little unsafe) until I get it to him, or is it needed to run properly?

I've done a 5 speed swap on my car, but got a complete swap so I didn't have to worry about any of this stuff... Any answers are appreciated!

1) the crossmembers are not the same, a/t is different from m/t.

2) well plug the hole first off :naughty: . there arent any adverse affects not having the speed sensor in. you will not hav a speedo nor cruise control!

Oh, don't worry about crossmembers. I have way too many different crossmembers... What I was wondering about was the actual transmission mount, if it was the same?

EDIT: Nevermind. I found my answer.
