Axle/Gears: Behind me somewhere
They will both work; but the one for the high-perf motor is lighter than the one for the non-perf one. The difference is about 16 lbs vs 22 lbs.

Get the TPI one, you'll probably like it better. Especially if the car has more gear than it came with.

Your 85 has a two pc rear main seal if it is the stock motor that came in the car.

They started 1 pc rear mains in '86. The bolt circles are different between 1 and 2 pc cranks.
