it should be bolt-on but the Intake manifold will probably have to be ported.

-Put the dash and console back together. no way I'm keeping it taken apart longer than I need to.
-Got the flexplate out
-Transferred all of the roller brackets on the manual as well as the studs for the mount.
Some issues I ran into
-The shifter cable plate bolts were a bitch to remove. Just take your time and be patient. I ended up using the swivel ratcheting wrench. Once I got my hands in the little space and got the wrench on the bolt just take your time and it'll come off. My hands hurt after but I got it out.
-Installing them is also almost as big of a PITA if you are doing it alone. I had my buddy line the cable out from the engine bay (once the trans was out) so I can put the right side bolt in. I put the left side bolt in from the opposite side just so the plate isnt sitting floppy
-The bellhousing bolts are 14mm. I used a 15mm the whole time until I got to one of the bolts in the bay and the 14mm worked better since I couldnt get the 3/8" ratchet in there and had to use the 1/4"
-With the flexplate and flywheel, when I was doing my research, 4G63mighty max said he re-used his flexplate botls for the flywheel but when I took the flexplate off, the bolts were in no way being able to be used on the flywheel. Maybe it's cuz I have an 02 motor but I now need the flywheel bolts for the 5-speed. I'll order it at the dealer since thats my only option. I also need bolts for the pressure plate.
Here is the issue with the bolts
Front of flywheel

back of flywheel.

Now, you can see once the two adapters are installed, there is no way those bolts are
going to work for the flywheel
So I need the flywheel bolts and (dont hate) but I managed to forget I needed the mount for the manual. lol. So I should get paid tomorrow and order the mount from rockauto and order the bolts from the dealer. I am now just waiting on the select lever from Stewi and I should be able to put the manual in, hook up the lines and cables, put the axles and the suspension back together, and fill her up with gearlube, some DOT3 brake fluid, bleed the clutch system and adjust the pedal.

No.

SI!!!!! lol
Dude....I totally spaced the flywheel bolt issue! Marc and I ha the same fn problem when we put his on too. We had to find some bolts about 3/8"-1/2" longer just to get it to thread on and be secured
You made good progress though man
Did you guys just go to a parts store and got longer bolts or did you go to the dealer? Cuz, it will probably be cheaper at a parts store if I could do that you know?
edit: and you wouldn't happen to know the size and thread pitch would ya?
We went to a hardware store I believe, otherwise pulled them from the bolts bin here at the shop. I had to use a grinder on the end of the bolt because they were about 1/8" too long. I dont know off my head what the size/pitch was. We just took on of the stock bolts to the store and had them matched up with just a difference in length.Quote:
