    Spent the day at the junkyard

    And this is what I came home with. It's an 8.8 out of a 95 GT and the front suspension from the same car. Now I have to install it and get an engine hoist to remove the 4 banger! Best of all is I got the front and rear including springs for $250.:D...

    94 rearend

    I was walking through my local junkyard and found a 94 GT. It has the 8.8 rear with disc brakes. I was wondering exactly what parts I needed to get off the 94 to put this rear in my 86. Obviously the rearend but what about the e-brake cables. My 86 had the 7.5 in it with the drums so do I need...

    manual to auto swap

    I'm having an issue with the shifter in my 01 GT. As stated I'm converting my manual car to an auto. The auto transmission is bolted in but I'm having a problem with the shifter.

    Bug Remover

    I'm having a hard time keeping the bugs off my front end and was wondering if you guys had any thoughts on bug removers. I tried the Gunk brand and wasn't at all impressed with the results. Help me win the war against bugs!

    Differentials

    I was just wondering if the 8.8 differentials are interchangeable? A friend of mine has a 8.8 w/3.73 gears that he wants to sell fairly cheap. I want gears for my car (was thinking about 3.90) but for the price he wants for the rearend I would go with it if it would work!

    Dyno #'s

    Went to the dyno yesterday for a couple baseline runs. The car dyno'd at 228 and 269. That's about what I expected for a 2001 GT w/Steeda cat back and BBK cai. I was thinking my next mod would be an SLP o/r X pipe and then nitrous. How do you guys think that combo would sound?
