Well I know the engine is weighted slightly different from AT to MT.

Other than that, I'm not sure of anything else.

It will work, I'm just saying that you might notice a bit more vibration/shaking from the engine bay.

the answer to your question is yes.

Or i'll buy the engine off you for $200, heh.

engine's the same. the only problem would have been if you were switching from SOHC to DOHC or vise versa

Are you kidding me? The engines are IDENTICAL. The only difference between the MT an AT cars is that the auto tranny is heavier, not the engine.
