O yea, my dad's got an AWESOME digital camera (HP C200 I def recomend if you want a digi cam) so I plan on taking pictures of the ENTIRE installation, I'll try to get very detailed.

$750 is a good deal....mind if I ask where you came across it?

Also if you need any tips when you do the install I'm available (as always) for advice/assistance.

I posted it in the "Parts Wanted Forum" and apparently someone saw it. Emailed me...BAM! Here's what I got included:

Tranny
Clutch (used, I don't know how used though)
Bellhousing
Hydraulics
Flywheel

So, if I'm correct, all I need is the crossmember, shifter and speedo box. I'm going to desperately try to have it in by the time school starts back up (Aug 5).

You'll need the pedals also from a fourth gen.

Spohn makes a great conversion crossmember for probably the best price avaliable.

Yea, I'm ordering the one from Spohn. My pedals will work though, I have a 5-speed now.

You don't need 4th Gen pedals.

And yes...Spohn's crossmember/torque arm set-up is a very quality piece.

I used T-5 pedals for my swap....you just have to make sure they aren't from an '82 car because they had mechanical clutches. It was nice not having to chop up the brackets to get the pedals in.

He said 11,000 so I'm assuming it was rebuilt.

Has to be. That's a hell of a deal though.
