incorrect. they are different.
the auto starter has one bolt from the front and one from the back as one of the captured threads for the auto starter bolts is in the bell housing, where as both threads for the retaining bolts on the manual are situated in the starter motor housing.
you would need to manually position the starter to mesh the pinion teeth in the correct position for the ring gear and use a non captured bolt and nut to be able to use the auto starter on a manual transition vehicle. i dont recommend it.
