DavyZ Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 Welcome to the forum; enjoy! The link he gave you about the JTR manual covers all of that. This forum and the others also cover the basic questions that have been asked about infinitum. In a nutshell, you can use the 1990 engine and tranny, no worries. The R200 rear diff has a 200 mm ring gear, the same size as the Corvette's--it is strong enough to handle the torque of the V8. If the search function on the forum is working, by all means please use it--you'll save yourself hours of time by reading all the great answers supplied by knowledgeable members on the forum. The JTR manual is a great guide and well worth the money invested to outline a swap and take you though each step. If you read the "sticky" at the top of the forum, that will answer a ton of questions too. Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
