    You need to search.

      I am thinking of doing the same thing, but what I haven't been able to find out is, what brake booster should I use?

                Use engine mounts on the engine and transmission mounts on the tranny.

                Just be careful they are the right ones.

                              let see here, i see a noob who doesnt know shit and cant figure out how to use the search button for a easy swap. use the search button before putting up a useless thread.
