I can't figure out what your question is.

Are you having mounting problems?

I believe he is getiing at cutting the firewall where the hydraulic clutch reservoir/master cyl. mounts. There is a post somewhere that shows grafting the '01-'05 panel into an '00. Might try searching the engine swap section. I found this, but it isn't much help: http://forum.2gn.org/viewtopic.php?t=29 ... wall+plate

IIRC you need to get Part Number: 5066344AA Cowl - Dash panel - Outer Outer 2001 List Price $142.00 and cut/weld the section you need or there may be a pacth panel available from the dealer. You could always ask in the parts request section. Either danteneon or BRR will give you a accurate answer.

its a long thread, but iirc there is something in there about dealing with the 00 firewall. if not get in touch with NiteHawk.

Page eight, post #234 to be specific. That's the one I had seen. Thanks, racer12306!

Why not just run the cable setup and swap bell housings with a cable trans - do it the easy way?
