a little off topic, but i just discovered there are different gear ratios in the automatics
sorry the pics are sideways. i had to keep them as big as possible to be able to read them.

I’ve always heard them called “build codes”

They are printed on a 8 ˝ X 11 sheet of white paper and then folded in to quarters and stuck in the wire springs of the back part of the back seat of just about every GM car I’ve ever seen built before 1987-ish.

I have yet to figure out where GM “hid” them in the fiero.

Knowing GM, the 14th floor probably told them that the build sheets had to be thrown away because there was no back seat to put them in.

Seriously though, ask the vette guys where they find their build sheets at, ours probably won't be too far away. My buddy found his under the wires on the driver's seat on his 88 Trans Am.

Don't look now, but I think the idiots have taken over the asylum.

I have found paper work taped to the insulation behind the door panels before, but I'm not sure if it's the build sheet or not

that's an isuzu,
you will need the metal brackets from the tranny to the rubber mounts,
the shifter inside the car,
the shift cables,
the clutch slave and mount bracket.
and then re wire your car so the reverse light switch on the tranny can be used.

the thing is i have none of those parts from the car it came out of and i dont kno what kind of car it came out of either
buddycraigg MAR 04, 04:47 PM
85 and up 4cylinder should have the parts you need.

It will probably be easier and cheaper to just get the right transmission.
