Question TII convertable?

Who here has a TII drivetrain in the convertable. I am thinking seriously about it. What are some of the major differences other than the Engine, Tranny, Rear End, Front Brakes? These seem to be the only items I would need to be transferring over. Any web pages that someone could show me of the conversion. Thanks for any help.

Check out http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Speedway/6335/ . If you have a 89-91 the wiring is much easier.

The brakes are the same all the way around for the Convertible and TII. No need to change that. You need everything you mentioned, + starter, flywheel, clutch slave cylinder, driveshaft, engine wiring harness, boost sensor, fuel pump, fuel pump relay (just do the rewire, it's easier!!!) POSSIBLY the transmission crossmember. If it's an 88, I have been told (but cannot confirm) that the ECU is the same. You might want a TII ECU just to be sure though... There are some wires different in the dash, but Chris (from RP) told me it only took him about 30 minutes to fix that, didn't require a swap of the whole harness. If it's an 89+, the dash harness is the same, but you need and 89+ TII ecu.
