Im getting a 6 bolt motor out of a 91 laser fwd turbo automatic. Im planning on swaping it into my 95 Talon Tsi AWD.

Will my 2g awd 5spd tranny bolt up to it?!?
 
Yes it will bolt up perfectly. Only thing is that you won't use one of the tranny to engine bolts, because the 1G block is cast differently than the 2G block. So you'll want to use the tranny/starter plate from your 2G to sort of seal off the space that will be open. I'd have to get a pic to really explain, it's tough to say in words.
 
can you use the starter from the 2g to put in the 1g? Does it have the same teeth pattern number?
 
Starters are interchangeable. If you have a FWD car, use a 6 bolt FWD flywheel. If you have an AWD car, use an AWD flywheel. It'll work just fine. You'll have fun getting the bushing out of the crank before you install the flywheel since your 6 bolt is coming from an auto, though. Good luck.
 
Yes the starter is interchangeable between the 6 bolt and 7 bolt engines. It will work just fine.
