Re: t5 swap
Maybe, maybe not. More than likely it won't do anything noticeable. I'm not 100% sure though; I've only done the swap on a carbureted engine. Do a search, I'm sure someone has answered this before.

Re: t5 swap
I have a question about this. i have a 91 RS TBI vert. I believe the speedometer for this is electronic or vsomething whatever they call it and the one on the 85 is mechanical. will the speedometer from the 91 RS work with a t5 from a an 85z28?

Re: t5 swap

Re: t5 swap
I've got a spare VSS I'll sell you for considerably less than Autozone.
PM if you're interested.
