    I have a 3.9 V8 out of an auto Disco I in my manual Range Rover. No troubles at all, just had to swap the appropriate parts over.
    I can't see you would have any issues going the other way.

    The clutch on the manual will be a problem, but once you have changed the auto's flex plate and torque converter for the manual flywheel things will work much better!

    I'd be changing the rear crankshaft oil seal while you're at it.

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    Which is something I didn't do when I changed mine and I am cursing it now. Leaks like a sieve!

    I'd also be taking a look at this thread http://www.aulro.com/afvb/technical-...ml#post1197051 if the fronts of your 2 engines are not the same.
