No, there is no clutch cable to in an automatic frame. The list did some
research on this a while back and no one had one. I don't think there will
be a bracket for the shift rod bushing either, but those can be purchased.
It is the same as a type 1. The rear subframe is the same, you will just
need the T-3 manual transmission mount. And don't throw your automatic mount
away. They are like hen's teeth and someone else can use it.
BTW. where are you located? I might be interested in your automatic trans
once you get it out.
