hi guys. new to the dsm community. found a 98 gsx for a good price so decided to pick it up. motor was blown so bought a motor from a 98 gst for it! didnt have time to put it in myself becasue of my busy work schedule so sent it to a buddy thats a awesome mechanic. (did his own rb25 swap bmw e30, and also works on ls engine alot) calls me up saying the bellhousing of the tranny and the engine arent lining up. so i went there to look at it and he was right. some of them line up and he was able to get 3 out of the 7 holes in but thats it. all the bolts are only in front of the engine.none in the back line up, and the dowel pins are in place as well everything else was off by 2 inches. so i tried to do research and nothing is coming up. been pulling my hair out for a couple weeks now. haha has anyone had this problem before, and if so what can i do to fix it. engine is from a 98 eclipse gst and the tranny is a 96 gsx transmssion(have transfercase to match). dont have picture at the moment but nect time i can make it to his shop i will take some
 
thanks so much! i have the awd flywheel but left the backing plate from the gst out.thank you i appreciate the answer!

wait whats the difference in the flywheel? will the gst pressure plate work with the gsx flywheel?
 
The flywheels are different in overall diameter between the FWD turbo cars and the AWD cars. The pressure plates are interchangeable.
