Re: auto to maual swap (lswift)
no ls tranny is b series tranny doesn't bolt up to d series besides the gearing sucks. just use ex tranny make sure it's EX. I think you will need to get a new IM if you are going to use 5spd ecu, because the IACs are different and one is built into the TB and second is built in the IM.
