So I measured from the end that mates with the back of the block to the holes where the tranny mount bolts go on and the measurements were the same on both trannys. I installed the 6MT and fit the mount and cross member up to the car and all the bolt holes lined up so I just bolted it all up and called it a night.
I'm saying that you can use the 5MT mount and crossmember with either transmission without a problem, but if you try to put a 6MT mount on a 5MT crossmember it won't work.
