a few montsh back i sold my friend my 87 monte ss stop minus my 100% illegal straight pipe exhaust(no cats no mufflers)...i beat the **** outta the car i was a moron.. the cars interior is mint so is the exterior minus teh fact i need a bumber comver and rigth fender, oh yeah the engien is done and so is the 2004r tranny. and teh brakes need adjusting....
so since i i know whyat engien im putting in my 78(502 ramjet) and cant find a buyer for my beautiful 350, i was thinking of sellign my integra to my friend for 6k (bought it for 4500) puting my 350 outta my 78 into my monte attach it to a tremec 5spd and have the brakesd fixed and find body parts soem where lol and use the monte for my daily driver...
monte-1000$
engine-free
tranny-1500$???
clutch-500$??
brakes-500$??
body parts and paint-1000$??
total 4500$ aorund, leavignme 1500 to pay my mom back for the integra an havign a daily driver taht doesnt sound liek a weed wacker
what do you guys think should i go for it or not??

i say stick with the 200r4, thats a pretty stout auto...and it should fit into the g-body fine since they were OE on the turbo buick's

5spd into a g-body is a cool deal. unless you wanted to do a T56 which i happen to know where you coudl find  hint hint nudge nudge :P
i say go for it. sounds like a cool project and there are a few g-bod guys around who could show you how to do it.
