As I said before the bare engine is the same, ancillaries and wiring are different.

Hi thanks for the help. So I just connect my early cooling system, use same wiring and leave the extra pressure sender disconnected but left in place and thats basically it? As if that's the case I'd rather do that than mess
With the flywheel etc with the auto. Thanks
Yep - that's all there is to it. That's what I'd do.
It's worth checking the end float while the engine's out though, regardless of the flywheel/torque converter option. Firstly it'll tell you something about the degree of wear in the engine, and secondly, if it needs adjusting (take the flywheel off, get new shims to take up the excess float) it's much easier to do while the engine's out.
