They have the codes broken down into years and clutch type. It's a lot of work to switch from one type to the other.
Bolting in almost any 5MT in place of another 5MT is easy.

Best to match clutch type (push or pull) AND front diff ratio to rear diff ratio.
Many places on this forum and online to show the trans codes, info and years that work.
