      would the headers and full exhaust work the same as the fuel injected one's? i have never did stuff like this.

          88-89 carbed, 90-93 fuel injected.

            It's a little more complicated than that in the '89's.
            The '89 carbeds were manuals and '89 EFI's were ATX's.
            Also believe there may have been a mix of 4 and 5 spds in the carbs.
            But can't confirm.

              I believe 88 - 89 LXs 5 speeds. For sure 88 LXs were/are.

                well there's your problem... that motor doesn't have big enough wires going to it. In fact, it's got a fuel line, so it must be an engine, not a motor!
