the auto crossmember is in a different location, you can find a writeup on rotary ressurection's website for a cheap ad easy fix but to do it right requires getting the mounts from your car and welding them into the auto chassis.

"Isnt this suposto be easy? "

i keep seeing this said lately, too bad all the old folks are gone to rip into the newbs who keep spewing that everything is cake and takes 5 minutes with an e-bay ECU chip.
