Strange question yes but I want to transplant the motor from my 82 vette in this 90 because I want to abandon my 90 project and finish my 82 vette and want the tpi motor in it.

Just like the looks of this 82 vert way more then the 90. C3 is got a look all it's own! But still want to keep the 90 running.

I think you might be money ahead to sell the 90 fixed up and legal and use the funds to find a fresh tpi drivetrain and wiring harness from somewhere else.

Don't do twice the work- you won't be paid for that.
