Bellhousing the same for 2H auto vs manual tranny

[ceylonfj40nut]

About to do a 5spd manual tranny conversion on my auto Tranny HJ60. Do I need to source a manual tranny Belk housing or can i use auto tranny bell housing?

I have posted this in the diesel section as well. Thought I would get faster response here.

Part numbers are different, but don't know the physical differences, other than the obvious - the bellhousing for the automatic doesn't have the opening for the clutch release fork. And the bellhousing (the same as on my '89 FJ62) is open (round) at the end - no provisions for bolting up the ears on the H55f. You'll have to source a bellhousing from an H55f equipped HJ60. Both part numbers I find are NLA from Toyota.
