gsl and gsl-se...whats the diff?

ok. I have an 82 fb. Its not the gsl or the se. but it has the gsl rear end with the lsd and disk brakes and such. So i was wondering what is the differences between the 3 different models/styles? Are the engines all the different? what?

GSL= shitty lug pattern, smaller brakes, weaker shocks carbed smaller motor
GSL-SE= the good lug patterm, bigger brakes, better shockes, Fuel injected and a bigger motor (13b)

ok. ive been dabbling in the idea of putting a turbo II into my car. and all of the inforamation ive found about it is for the gsl-se. From what ive found, basically all that i would need to do would get a new tranny mount fabricated from some fab. shop. as far as i can tell, the people that have done the swaps just use the gsl-se motor mounts. are these the same as the gsl motor mounts??

GS's are better....the lightest shell of the bunch . i love my roll up windows (none of that power crap) still have a sunroof,sure i had to switch my differential to a GSL, but the smaller 12a can also mean alot of fun...
