rx4 12a auto and manual swap

ok, so i have a friend with a 12a single dizzy and 5 speed, and i have a twin dizzy and auto. 1973 rx4 coupe model.

i know engine, gearbox, master cylinder, pedal assembly, coil and ignitor, but anything else i need to swap over? exhaust is the same on 12a twin and single, auto/ manual? same exhaust? also i know propellor shaft is different so thats getting swapped too.

thanks

I don't. But there is a lot of documentation at www.iwankel.com that is related to the old school stuff. Billy and the guys will be able to tell you what's needed.
