Yeah you'll need a new driveshaft. Or you can swap the yoke from the auto with a yoke from a driveshaft from a 5spd. (only difference in 5spd and auto driveshaft is the yoke).

is your car now an auto, idk if the flywheel is the same,but it could be because i dont ever remember anyone selling a flywheel just for automatics

btw i have my old flywheel and clutch with 50k on it that i can sell you cheap if you do need it,i think its not much to have it resurfaced

thank you very much green when i finally find a donner car ill give you a call. how difficult was it for you to do? im gonna have a few people help who have experience doing it.

and @mustang51 thank you for your parts but i think ill probably just try to get all the parts off of one car to make it easier, and i might go with a stage 2 clutch because i plan to do turbos in the future

Its nothing harder than a clutch job.. the pedals are a little bit of PITA...

If you prepare and get all the parts in a advance so there are no OH SHI#!! moments you'll be fine...

Like I said, I can tell you all about it.
