so yeah

we did the swap today
new exedy clutch in, fidanza lightweight flywheel
got the old engine out and put the new one in, minus the intake manifold
driveshaft is out, tranny plugs are plugged in but i gotta check
putting the engine back in was a p i t a

i got some questions
FA research tells me

97 ka24de into a 95
use all 95 electronics harness + ecu, etc
"only" thing you have to do is swap manifolds (trickier then it sounds lol)
can a guru please confirm

any special instructions for installing the 95 manifold?
we wanted to do it out of the car but it was starting to get real dark so we just dropped the engine in without the manifold bolted on
i got both manifolds in my room making a big old stink

planning on going over them later

any tips, advice, instructions, or details would be very appreciated.
