I am doing the auto to manual swap and just wanted to know instead of using the long bolt that is used. can i use a bolt like in a B or D series? i have eliminated the balance shafts so no need for the pulley. Please let me know.. thanks

 

You have to use spacers to make sure the spinning parts dont rub.

And leave the lower gear on the crank

 

the balance shaft kit came with the lower gear replacement part as well. So i think i am good there. So for the spacers i should use them behind the timing belt tensioner? Thank you for the help..
