are the crankshafts different between the auto and manual truks? specifically the 3.0L V6?

Same. We are putting Upindair's old 3.0 manual into an automatic truck.

some of the newer 3.4s from autos apparently don't have the crankshaft drilled for a pilot bearing on newer trucks from what i've heard. older engines are all drilled though

This is obviously only critical if you are pulling an auto motor and grafting it to a manual.

Don't forget to pull the pilot bearing . Yes cranks are the same , as are the 3.4's
