Thanks for the Info, I am keeping this car as an option. My 90 needs a trans, clutch and radiator. The 90's 8.8 is apparently in good condition and it has all 4 10 hole rims. So I would not be needing the 7.5" rear in the 85, but I would want to keep a spare set of rims around. I have found a guy in Fall River CD performance which quoted me a great price on a rebuilt world class T-5. I would rather get a trans from someone who will stand behind the work instead of having to pull the wrecked 85 apart. But.... If I do get the 85 is has a good running 302 with a aftermarket 4bbl intake etc which I could sell off. Just don't want to start another long project if I can avoid it.
