I don't recommend reusing gaskets if they have been used longer than 1,000 miles. As this one sounds like a factory engine, REPLACE THEM! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

well i decided to take of the tranny. I had to take of the intake manifold to free up some space to take out the bolts. They where not hard at all I fell on my ass trying to take out one of the bottom ones i was going to pull it so hard when i started pulling it was almost loose LOL. Well i got it off thoes tranny jacks help alot and man do these ******* trannies weight alot (AUTO). Im now in the process of taking out the engine.



1. New question I noticed that there are some diffrences between the 86 and the 88 engine like the linkage on the throttel body on the front side is diffrent. It seems like the primary butterflys on the 86 are vacume operated but on the 88 they are opened by a little metel rod with a spring on them. and on the back side on the 86 there 2 vacume nipples and on the 88 there 3??? and one know what im talking about. also where the pressure sensor is on my 88 there is anotehr sensor right next to it that is not there on my 86? there some small diffrences but any way i plan on only osing the block from the 88. I hope that everything goes well.

BTW: I cut my finger with the back of the tranny and when I cut my finger i droped if on my toe and it hurts like ****. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683358.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683637.gif



I recomend working with gloves once you got the tranny loose. and for gods sake dont drop it on your foot if you see it is falling just let it take the hit your foot is worth more than a tranny

(UNLESS IT IS THAT HKS TRANNY LOL)

Benchpressing it to reinstall it is a fun time too... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blush.png

First time I read that I thought it said you cut off your finger on the tranny, and your finger hit your foot. That would have sucked. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif
