    The front half of the driveshafts are all you need when doing a swap like this, if you put the front half of the manual driveshaft onto the original automatic rear half of the driveshaft it would have fitted without needing modification!
    All e36s and e46s are like this, for example small case rear ends have a longer driveshaft, so if you pull a manual conversion out of an e36 318 the driveshaft will be too long to fit into a e36 325, but if you put the manual front half of the shaft onto the auto rear half it will be the correct length as the rear half is a certain length to suit what rear end you have.

Also did the coding to remove the TCM from the start up roster. Piece of cake. I also made an upgraded shifter linkage from the transmission to the shifter assembly.
