Almost but NO, an AU will if you want a mechanical clutch, these are rare as the proverbial. At a pinch you can use the E series bell housing but the bottom 4 bolts won't fit, two can be made to fit but the bottom two are a no go.

it'll have to be an AU manual bellhousing, the auto bellhousing is different
