Awesome thanks guys! yeah the 88 has an auto in it already. i have a manual out of that 91 i bought wrecked. guy is selling me a perfectly running (190K) engine, ecu and engine harness for $300 and offered me the auto for another $150 so im thinking it might be nice to have a spare? or is it really even needed? it has less miles on it than my auto 88 trans though.
