The obvious change wasn't mentioned.  You have to change the bell housing
and remove the crank pilot bushing to put a stick shift engine in a PG car.
This means a new bell housing to block gasket and maybe a new oil pan gasket
as you have to drop the pan slightly to get the bell housing changed.
Don't forget to "Loctite" the flex plate bolts to the crankshaft or you will
have oil leaks.  The flex plate bolts are shorter than flywheel bolts so
don't put the longer screws in as they will bottom out on the cam gear.
Good luck, Clark Hartzel
