To what degree can cloning take place?

[Stephen Bigelow]

Pretty much everything is the same....a turbo trans *is* different from a S
trans, although it will certainly bolt up.
Use the suspension off of the turbo!
15" rims, and stiffer sway bar.

PS pumps, no problem...same with most everything else. S may or may *not*
have power/heated seats.
