depends on how you do it, no matter what you'll need to make at least 1 mount, since i upgraded the tranny and made all 3 mounts i manged to located everything so i didn't have to cut the firewall, if you mount the BP onto the stock tranny the BP will sit further back and you'll need to cut the firewallOriginally posted by Sp33dYHow much metal has to be cut to fit a BP in?

The auto and manual trans cars use different side motor mounts. If you do the swap with an auto you might have to redo the mount when you switch to a 5 speed.

I would not recommend putting a BP05 on a B3 tranny. If you drive like it do the tranny will be dead or you'll be needing a new clutch in two months. Do it right in the first place.
Here's my ugly, edit BP01... technically still a BP lol...
