Probably same rules apply. Front DS half, modified trans mount. etc. Just use the KA trans for easier life

"I has a notch auto with blown CA"... Are you saying you are putting a KA in and using your old CA automatic tranny? You will need the front bell and flex plate from a KA automatic swapped on to the CA auto in order to bolt it in.

um... little confused, ill need the KA flex and bell to fit the KA to my old CA Trans? if thats the case i may do this, as my wife actually found another car and the S12 is free to become mine >Smiley but ill be using this mainly for courier work and though i love 5speed, it might be better to have the auto fail(GDit im getting old  ) at least for a little bit. Ease of install FTW!!!
