[B][I][COLOR=red] Whats up people, I got a few quick questions for anyone who knows anything about the difference between the 86-88 NA 5speed trans and the 89-91 5speed, I was wondering if my 88 GXL tranny will fit in an 89 GXL and further more what the gearing difference is if i'll end up slowing my car down

Thanks

Okay, thanks. Just outta curiosity, what makes the T2 pumpkin stronger than an N/A? Where does the vert stand? Mine is geared 4.10 stock, right. Is it the parts used?
