I wanted to know if the driveshaft of an automatic transmission will fit on a manual transmission? and is it possible to keep the auto computer with the manuel tranny?

Thanks for the info!

No, the driveshafts are different lengths, but yes you will be fine with the auto computer. I have been running t5 with the auto computer for about 3 years now.

I'm not sure which auto i had, but my yoke was different as well

I got lucky though, the guy i bought my house from left 3 driveshafts behind. I used the driveshaft of one and the yoke from another.

All you have to worry about so far is the driveshaft. I haven't had anything go wrong with running my LB3 and t-5.
