    hopefully i'll be doing this too. even though my 4dr is currently my daily driver, i HATE the auto in it. heck, i hate autos period. they suck. my '86 hatch(parts car) seems to have tons more power than my auto, cuz it's a 5 spd. and that's the one that's gonna be in my 4dr hopefully by the end of this month

    wel you igure the weight tranfered to th torque convertor is equal to reoughly 25% of total power outpu. My conversion opened a huge doorway. just be careful. i swapped to connectors and now I have 5 horn buttons and no cruise control. man clear beer is hard on you. Its been 15 minute tying this and 2 spell checks.
