OK,
So it sounds like I have a couple of choices.
1.I can wait and try to find a A833 and bolt it right up.
2. go for a T5 out of a 83-86 S10 and make a couple of minor modifications...perhaps the astro van clutch, drive it with respect, knowing the T5 won't be an extremely strong tranny, but will be quite respectable for a six cylinder.
That sound close?
