00 si originally had a b16a2, now will b installing a b16a with lsd, i was wondering besdies the clutch and flywheel, is there anything important that i should worry about when putting in the tranny?. I got the shiftlinkage, along with 2 new mounts for it. Flywheel, Clutch, Tranny, mounts, linkage, then starter? thats the order it is going in.

is this more or less correct, is there anything else should b aware of?

First time installing, i will b with other mechanics i just want to kno for myself, thanks

you be golden! Make sure all the bolts are off, before you start prying the transmisson.

I believe, thats how one of my buddies ruined theres. A well known machanic made a terrible mistake buy tightning one of the tranny bolts, hopeing it will aligned it self to the block.

good advice.

when ive put tannies back on i usually get two thick screw drivers and put them through bolt holes into the tranny and into the block where the bolts would go which makes it a little easier to line the tranny up. then i usually hold it in place while someone turns the flywheel slightly until the tranny slides in.

Loc-tite the flywheel bolts if you plan to have them off. I had a how to on a tranny removal, but it's basically the same as an install.

Also get you a good jack to take the weight/angle off of the block, it'll help you a ton getting it back in. Just get under the car, press it up, and have somebody on top help wiggle it in.
