sold my 88 TII so i could keep my 84 gsl

so i got my gsl running somewhat, tho it isn't reliable at all, it ran and i got to drive it for 15 minutes or so, and just from that drive alone i decided its easily a more fun car than my 88 TII even with its stock 12A... it handled so well, and it had a little bit of pep considering whats wrong with it(can't figure out which it does faster, burn oil or leak it... also the carb is in desperate need of a rebuild...) i got a buddy who offered to sell me a complete GSL-SE motor minus the ecu, so i decided to sell my non running highly modded only needed a good motor 88 TII so i could afford to buy that SE motor, and then pull off the FI and carb it... i prefer a carb'd setup since my repu is a carb'd 76-78 J spec 4 port 13B with street port, and performs like a dream with that holley 550cfm carb... so soon i will be working on a somewhat of an SE swap into my GSL, i can't wait...
