MOtor swap questions

[ceatock at sympatico.ca (Chad Eatock)]

The 2.0l upper intake manifold I got with the motor is fubared as the top
part of it is totally smashed in....can I still use my original intake with
the 2.0l lower intake?  or am I F**ked?  when taking the clutch and PP and
stuff off the old motor and I check it out and its ok do I need special
tools to put it back onto the 2.0l?  The bentley says you need alignment
tools and holding tools etc.....  I have a new flywheel (lightened) and was
hoping to reuse the other clutch components if they are in good shape.  I
really wanna get this thing going but it seems I always have to go out and
buy special tools....yuck!!
