V8 sbc 84 gsl-se
Hi, I am Scotty from Virginia, I bought this car 100% all stock for my at the time girl friend for Christmas in 2004 or 5 and then we broke up she kept the car and this year called and asked if I wanted to buy it for a good deal, so for $1,000 and a 9 hour road trip from Va to Ny it was back in my hands, this time with a 350/350 combo. This was a good score or so I thought trans went out the day after getting home, car was trailered home, so that's where I am at now. Put it up on Craig's list a few times but only low ballers and tire kickers so I am keeping her, the 10 minutes I did get to drive where a blast.

Found myself a 700r4 might try and swap out the TH350 tomorrow, on a very tight budget just started a new job. Wish me luck, hope it's not to cold

Also just thought about this, what area good set of budget coil overs to use? Also do 4 lug Mustang wheels work, I know the bolt pattern is the same but does the offset/back spacing work on a 84 GSL-SE? Or would 240/260 wheels work better?

Found some good info on swapping out a TH350 for a TH700r4, hope my TH350 is the long tail shaft version, The TH350's case length is 21 5/8 inches. Depending on the tail shaft housing, its overall length can either be 27 5/8 or 30 5/8 inches. The 700R4's case length is 23 3/8 inches and its overall length is 30 3/8 inches. The TH350 weighs 120 lbs., while the 700R4 weighs 155 lbs.
