Transmission bolt pattern

Hey all, thanks for the responses! I finally got back out to working on the car a couple of days ago, and yes, the new transmission is different. I am going to re-use the original tranny(yes, I would like a 5spd, but I don't want to hack up this car) and keep my fingers crossed that it is still ok. I didn't realize that the front mount was different. Thanks for that information! I will switch it over. Now, I am worried about the wiring- I don't want to hack up the wiring but don't know what to do. One example is going from 2 distributors to one... Also, since I am not using the 5spd, I am selling it. It comes with a new clutch and a flywheel that could use to be turned. I am thinking 150 bucks for all of it... I don't know what it is worth but I don't need it.
Any and all input would be fantastic. Thanks guys!
