auto motor vs manual motor 13b need help
not sure if this is the right place but yeah
i recently purchased a 95 13b that came out of an automatic rx7 befor i bought the motor i did research and called some shops and every answer i got was no differences so i purchased the motor. once i got it i pulled my manual 13b from my 93 rx7 and compared the motor. they are different apparently the starts mounts different the back plate of the motors are completely different. the left side of the back plate is different the top is aswell. and maybe four of the trans bolts will line up. so my question is, is there any other differences between the two motor beside the wiring harness and what was listed above? also could i just swap the rear irons or is there more to it than that?
here are some pics for references
auto motor
maunal motor
starters
also i was recently told the wastegates might be different or differently tuned. can anyone confirm this?

You need to install a Pilot bearing and a seal, then either the stock flywheel or pick up an ACT to mount to the auto CW. http://banzai-racing.com/store/93+_r..._flywheel.html
Do not change the rear housing, it will bolt to the manual trans just fine. Use the manual starter, you just need to get a shorter bolt to replace the long one.
