I have that but a 6 port from a '91 in the track car. The IDA is great. You'll like that setup. For a grand, I'd go for it. You'll have a bit of a sleeper on your hands. There will be a little more expense like the engine mount and things like that, but it shouldn't be much. If you have any questions, let me know and I'll be happy to help.

Thats very similar to my set up. You will absolutely love it.......

Much stronger than the 12A yet very dependable and easy to keep running

I say go for it...............

I'm not sure about the TII tranns into FB, I doubt that the trans mount would work without mods, I'm sure there is a thread in the archives that will give that information, however You FB tranny should bolt onto the 4port, thats what I did.

I'd definately go for it. Can sell pieces and probably turn a profit if it ends up not working properly. If the TII trans is an S4 it will swap in with little modification. Clutches aren't interchangable but if he is selling it as a whole the clutch should be the one you need.
