OK so I'm going to use a 91 sc motor in a 88 tc so I can use the monuts off the 91 in the tc with no problems?


If you have them, use the lower U-brackets and the bushings from the 88TC with the engine brackets from the 91.

You may be able to use the 91 mounts as is, but you might need to elongate the slot in the K-member on the driver side.

It's an EEC4 system.  No way in hell it needs a $600+ "custom" harness...

I have the motor ready to go. But the car I was getting to put the motor in didn't happen. So I'm still looking for a body to put it in.
