I see a lot of posts about converting an auto to a 5-speed, but not the other way around.
Just built myself a nasty C4 (billet aluminum high and forward drums, lightened input shell, fully rollerized, etc, etc. $4400!!!) that I plan to drop into my project car which is currently a 5-speed. The swap seems pretty straight-forward but what would I need to get this done? I will be using a reverse pattern gate shifter and not the factory shift console if that matters.
Here's my list of assumptions:
The mechanical side is all figured out, just have questions on the above. Any input would be great guys!

Here's my list of assumptions:
- Auto Brake Pedal Assy - I assume everything is just plug and play here? Any jumpers, harnesses or bypass plugs required?
- Transmission Harness - I can use/modify my 5-speed harness but perhaps it's easier to get one from an auto? All i really need is the speed sensor and the neutral/reverse I'll be splicing anyhow....
- Clutch Master Firewall Blank-Off - Does such a thing exist? Are auto cars just not drilled to accept a clutch master?
- Any ignition jumpers or harness plugs needed?- I'm guessing there must be something for a neutral safety switch or something?
