got a 87 13bt and 5 speed, now wat?

ok i just bought a 87 13bt and 5speed tranny.
i know i need a wiring harness and ecu,
turbo driveshaft, but how about the differential

what else do i need to drop this baby into my 87 N/A.

i have a lsd rear diff from an 88 GXL, will this work with my new turbo tranny and driveshaft?

any other misc parts that i need?

please someone help me

PM, email, or reply please, thanks

If you don't swap the diff, I THINK (key word; I can't remember exactly) you'll need to swap the speedo drive-gear in the tranny (very easy to do). I vaguely remember hearing something about using an auto-tranny's driveshaft.... Do a search.

Make sure to get a hood with a scoop on it. You'll destroy something really quick if you don't. Aside from that, an aftermarket boost gauge is nice.
