LG4 5 spd to 5.7 AT 5 spd swap
I'm about to swap my 350 out of my 79 Z28 into my 85 TA.
I know the engine is a bolt in deal but my question is that my Z is an auto an the TA is a Stick. I know i need to switch the flywheels but will I need a flywheel off a manual 350 or will the 5.0 flywheel work fine. Are there any other problems that I might run into? I need to do this swap as quick as possible since my folks are out of town and I don't want them to see the cars all stripped down since I have enough problems anyways.
Thanks

Your 305 flywheel will work fine. Don't forget the pilot bearing.
Sorry to hear about your plans for the computer controls. You'll miss them. Should you someday find yourself living in an emissions testing area, you'll miss the other stuff you threw away as well.
