'80 luv tranny has the starter on the right(passenger) side & has a cable clutch. '75 has a hydraulic clutch, what side is the starter on?

My 80 is an auto and my buddy had a motor and 4 spd out of his 75 and the pedals I'm not sure right off the top of my head to be honest

I think the 75 had the early engine, if the engine has the intake and exhaust on the same side then the trans won't work in your 80.
