Hey everyone!!! I currently have an automatic engine that was just swapped out with its transmission. However, I have another car that is a 5spd with a blown motor! I was wandering that if I was to drop the automatic's engine in with the 5spd transmission, would that work? Or would it be differnt? Please, any help would be appreciated. Thanks alot!!

It is a ka24e from a 1990 nissan 240sx. The other car (with the 5 spd) is a 91 nissan 240sx.

you want to drop a ka24e into a 91 chassis designed for a ka24de? wow, never heard of anyone wanting to do that. it is possible but will involve rewiring a lot of things. the crankshaft will need a pilot bushing installed.

lol.....nah, actually what it was, was that I was selling my ka24e outta my previoulsy swapped 1990 240, and I had forgot all about the fact that 91's come with the ka24de. But, I really did appreciate all the help I had gotten, and I would like to thank you!!!!
