I decided to keep stock driveshaft and rearend gonna be a daily driver. That ok?



Do I have to get the Tii hood for performance reasons or will it drive ok without it (overheat q)?



Is there anything I am forgetting?



Everything arrives next week in the mail (minus the broken down car, that is in my driveway)



First N/A to Tii swap do I need any special tools?



Thanks,

-N/A starter will work (that's what I use)

-You NEED the hood, or cut a hole in yours, or get a scoop installed, or get a FMIC

-If using the TII tranny I'm pretty sure your driveshaft won't work

-You need: Boost sensor, Knock control box, Walbro/TII fuel pump, downpipe, throttle cable (or go to local bicycle shop and get some brake lines)

-You need engine hoist (obviously), and go to sears and buy their stripped bolt removal kit ($20) - priceless!

-Boost guage

LOTS OF TIME
