Ok, simple question.

Converting my s14 auto to manual,

I have an s13 tranny, and it has this style dust cover on the tranny

Now, the driveshaft is out of a manual /abs s14 which is what I need, but the dust cover on the s13 tranny is contacting the driveshaft and causing it to bind and it's a very tight fit.

Is there any way I can remove the dust cover? Or should I just leave it in and hope that shit doesnt explode?

You can remove it (it's only friction installed) or you can mark it and trim it like i did (sorry, no pics).

Remove it. It's trash. The S13 one is a little more work but use a hammer to beat it out of round, then pry it out.
