First you will need a new clutch or your automatic worked over and guages, add a 11 or 10 plate keep the 4. 10's. The 10 plate might be a little hot to tow with.

Welcome

Hi PK, where are you located?? Put your location in your profile too. This way if someone is nearby you can get some local help and advice.



If you happen to be in Michigan, or northern Ohio you are welcome to contact me and get together, I have a '98 12v you can take for a drive and see if it has enough HP for you. Has DTT Trans too.



Send me a PM if you are nearby and we'll set up a time.



Hope this helps, Greg L
