OK , IT IS POSSIABLE THAT THE 4SPD WILL WORK, , HOWEVER IT MUST BE A DSL TO WORK, THE PROB COMES FROM THE FRT BEARINGS RETAINER , IF IT HAS 6 BOLTS ATTACHING IT TO THE FRT CASE IT SHOULD FIT THE 5SPD GAS TRANS , IF IT HAS ONLY 4 BOLTS HOLDING IT ON IT WONT WORK, , THE PROB IS THE CLUTCH THROWOUT PIVOT BALL IS ON THE RETAINER , FOR THE DSL ENG, AND ON THE CASE FOR THE GAS AND MOST OF THE 4 SPDS, , THE RETAINERS ARE NOT INTER CHANGEABLE BETWEEN THE GAS AND THE DSL ENG , YOU MUST HAVE THE DSL RETAINER FOR THE CLUTCH ARM
NOW FOR THE ODD PART SOME OF THOSE RETAINERS WERE CAST WITH BOTH OF THE PIVOT BOLT MOUNTING PODS ON THEM, BUT THEY ARE IN DIFF LOCATIONS ON THE GAS VERSION AND THE DSL VERSION, SEEMS ODD THEY DID THAT , SO TO MAKE IT BRIEF IF THE FRT RETAINER FROM THE 4 SPD DSL HAS 6 BOLT HOLES IT SHOULD WORK ON THE GAS TRANS TO CONVERT IT TO THE DSL TRANS
ONE OTHER NOTE IF ANY OF THE TRANS HAPPENS TO HAVE THE LOWER FRT COUNTER SHAFT BEARING THAT IS A NEEDLE BEARING IT WONT WORK FOR THE DSL SWAP, IT MUST HAVE THE LARGER BALL BEARINGS AND THEY ARE THE SAME BALL BEARING FROM 81 UP INTO THE MID 90,S , JERRY
