THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE ON A 1998 CHEVY 1500 AUTOMATIC... I THINK IT SHOULD BE CLOSE TO THE SAME. NOT SURE THOUGH!!! You have to unbolt the tranny from the engine........ followed by the bolts out of the back of the fly wheel....... then unbolt the place where the frame meets from the rear to the frontend.... hook a cable crank to the rear axel and one of the cross supports of the front frame........ slowly draw the frame back with the crank until you have enough room to take the old one out and put the new one in. BE SURE TO HAVE A FLOOR JACK UNDER THE TRANNY SO IT DOESN'T DROP!!

Is there an adapter you can use to mount a clutch type flywheel to an automatic crankshaft end Is there anything you can do beside changing the crank?

For most engines there is no need to change the crankshaft to use an engine for an automatic or a manual transmission. For an automatic, connect a flex-plate to the crankshaft. For a manual transmission connect a flywheel.

How is the fly wheel placed in a standard transmission vehicle and an automatic vehicle?

For both manual and automatic transmission equipped vehicles, the flywheel is actually attached to the rear of the engine crankshaft, not to the transmission itself. But cars that have automatic transmissions originally can have flywheels that are not compatable with manual transmissions. That is because with an auto trans the torque converter is bolted onto the flywheel, and there is no need for a central hole and bearing or bushing in the exact center of the flywheel. On the other hand, with a manual transmissioned car there is a pressure plate bolted to the flywheel, and a clutch plate is sandwiched between the pressure plate and the flywheel. There is also a shaft from the transmission thru the bell housing, through the center of the pressure plate, attached with a toothed surface to the clutch plate, and then the extreme forward point of this shaft goes into a hole in the center of a flywheel, and is held in place by a pilot bushing or pilot bearing that has been pressed into the center hole of the flywheel. So if you take out an automatic transmission and torque converter, you might not be able to bolt in a manual transmission because there might not be a central hole in the original flywheel to hold the pilot bearing/bushing and the tip of the pilot shaft....You may need to also change the flywheel.

The auto transmission will have to have the proper bell housing to line up. The cross member will need to be changed along with the flywheel. you will also need to add a cooler, and possibly change the radiator.

Can you change an automatic transmission car to a manual transmission car?

yes you can ,but you will need to buy and have installed, a new flywheel, bell housing, transmission, clutch, and drive shaft. then you will also have to have installed a clutch pedal inside the car. and to top it off, it the car has a computer, you will need to buy a computer to match a standard shift instead of an automatic shift. cheaper just to change cars
