the 92-00 trannys WILL NOT bolt into a 88-91 chassis.

basically trial and error just gotta try things, I'll keep and eye out for you though if I hear others doing that.

I built one out of stuff lying around my buddy's garage. He's got a fairly well stocked garage though. Here's a pic:

It wasn't easy, although it's very beefy and was designed for a race car. I used parts from an 85 Civic tranny, an old tire changer, a wiper motor arm, and a few other bits. It works amazing and is only slightly heavier clutch feel than stock.
