Swapping pistons and rods

[dk7868]

Dumb question but here it goes...

I'm having to swap out my crank due to a spun bearing and found a guy who had new crank, rods, pistons for his 2g Automatic GSX. My question is will those fit in my 2g Manual GST? I've read some things that have me wondering if the Auto internals will fit in the manual.

They should fit the only difference really is that it's manual and auto engine is still the same for all 7 bolt 2g

Thank you.. I didn't want to buy a bunch of expensive parts off of someone and not be able to use them.. Would the front axles change? I'm picking those up from the same guy too...

You're going to have to remove the crank bushing if it is installed in his crank.

Auto axles are not the same

Not sure whether or not the crank bushing is on his crank or not. Got a new problem now just trying to get to the crank. The transmission is completely disconnected but I can't separate it from the engine. Already double checked to make sure it wasn't in gear and its not. I'm stuck. I have to see if there is anything on here covering such instances. Anyone have a thread pinned on it?

You've removed axles, tcaae, inspection plate etc? There is also one bolt that goes in from drivers side it's above the tcaae mount.

mines a gst (not the gsx ) no tcase. I got it out though. Looking for suggestions as far as pistons, rods, crank, flywheel, clutch since I have it this far apart.

Act clutch kit with flywheel is a great street/strip combination IMO .

I would get some evo 9 pistons,maybe some eagles,stock (good crank) and act 2600 get a street disc tho
