Unhappy Crap!

I just got back from vacations and..........................I was having too much fun w/ my car and broke my "CUSTOM MADE DRIVESHAFT"....................<<<<TII welded to the GSL-SE one .....Here's my question? Can i just put a GSL tranny and driveshaft w/ the stock GSL-SE Clutch and flywheel? .........I believe the tranny is a 83 ......Kinda looks like the GSL-SE one ....But it has only one sensor.......
I'm broke right now=( so i'll just put this **** in until i get a real driveshaft

Yes, the GSL and GSL-SE transmissions are interchangible. The problem is that you have a TII engine, correct? The thing is that the -SE flywheel will not balance the TII rotors. I guess that you are going to have to spring for a custom driveshaft. Shouldn't cost too much and will be a lot less work then pulling the tranny, changing flywheel/clutch even if it did work.

Good luck.

Well, in that case it will work fine. Use the GSL/GSL-SE tranny, clutch, flywheel, starter, and driveline. There may be a problem with the driveline, though. You need to make sure that the driveline is '83.5-'85. They changed the size of the flange on the rear part of the driveline for these years (earlier models had a smaller flange).
