    Transmission question

    I'm looking at picking up a project 1988 9000 cse that has a auto trans going bad how difficult is it to source and swap out the auto trans to a manual trans?

    No harder than any other car. Does it have TCS?

    No idea haven't gone and looked at out yet? But for the sake of argument yes.

    You said 1988 CSE - no such car - do you mean 1998 CSE or a 1988 9000 Turbo? Automatics can be found for these cars as they did have failure issues (often just the valve body) on the earlier cars.
