I guess this is what you deal with, any time you mod a car. So I don't know if its the year, the motor and tranny mounts, or even the tranny, but I have the motor in, everything is ready just trying to figure out a way to run my intake and exhaust. That stuff will happen this weekend however I have another new problem. The motor from my 86 sedan, mounted to the 4 speed that came in the 88 2nd gen hatch, sits clocked forword a few degrees. Well that translates to about 3 in. Now it did give me some room I could really use, howeve now the intake on my turbo lines right up with my fan. So my solution, reverse the fan and put it on the front, can I do that? Also if its just the tranny, when I get a new trannyis it going to clock back. I want to be driving on Sunday so the quicker I get this info the better. Thanks, Benjamin

Are you using the mounts from the original turbo motor?

im guessing not cause it only does that cause they changed the undermount on the 87/88

Ya that's kinda the problem, the undermount was to long, I tryed using the tranny mount to see if it would clock back and it didn't, so untill I find a tranny I am kinda stuck using all the mounts off the non turbo motor, sucks a little but I just need to know if it will work, like I said, I kinda like the room in the back. And I will be getting a new rad at some point , after I actualy drive it for a bit.

And with that said, if any one has a spare 87 88 turbo trany laying around let me know, id love to get it.

Just get a F5M22 or KM206 out of a talon or Galant, making sure its an early 90/91 donor. Also taking your axels with you to ensure they go into the tranny would be smart.
