Yes it will bolt up with no problems, the engine doesn't know if it's a stick or not.

As long as it is a BOP Th350 that is, if it is from a chevy you will need a adapter ( I guess you know that, but anyways..

Make sure to remove the pilot bushing from the crank before putting the automatic behind the engine or the torque convertor will bottom out.

Good point about the pilot bearing !
I just seen to remember (and it might have been a Chevy thing) that the locating dowel pins were in different places for stick vs. auto. I just wanted to confirm that "Yes, it is a direct bolt-in" before I buy the 400 from my friend. Thanks Guys ! ! ! ! ACE |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
