I'm having problems with my prop-shaft on the E30, Running a M52 with 318is Box.

Would there be any difference when using an auto prop-shaft on a manual car?

If you don't mind your question being answered by one of "a bunch of c u n t s", there are no difference between auto or manual prop, other than the length of the front section.
What problems are you having?

Haha again, my apologies for my out of context comments.

Nothing, i'm fairly certain it's an issue with the mounting height of the gearbox. But i read somewhere someone said not to put auto prop-shafts on manual cars.
