Manual to Auto

Not a conversion as such.
Are there any issues with fitting an engine from a 2.3 manual into a 2.3 auto??
Just a straight engine swap, retaining the autobox.
I'm assuming and hoping the engines are identical and that the original wiring and autobox will bolt straight on 
Who knows??

hi m8
yep the 2 engines are the same, you'll just need to unbolt the flywheel off the manual and fit the torque converted to it, not sure if the pins are the same lenght so you'll need to check that
