hey ive got an auto vl and im puttin in another rb30 from a skyline that was a manual.. the hole were the spigot bush is inserted seems to be to big for the stall converter and i was just wondering if any thing could have been removed or even smashed to far in? plus on my old engine there seems to be a thread around half an inch into the hole for the stall conv. does the end come out or is it just a guide for something? mayb that could be the problem with my other engine.. ta

The auto and manual spigot bushes are different, if that's what you're asking?

There is an insert in the back of the crank on your old motor you just need to pull it out and put it into your new one

the auto's have a large bush that hang's out the end of the crank, and the manuals have a small bush that is inside the crank, so you need to remove the manual spigot and get a new auto spigot and fit it.

oh ok thanx guys, the tool from autobarn said there was no such thing as a spigot bush for an auto so i presumed the manual crank had been tampered with.. cheers

You can buy spigot pullers they have two arms to hook the spigot so it comes out even .If you use a slide hammer with 1 arm it will be harder to get out
