Just picked a 87 IROC as a donor car.
Going to use the TPI motor and 700r4 tranny in the 68 SWB fleetside project!! Picked up the JTR TPI conversion manual as well.
Heeeeeere we go!!!

Sounds great!! You will enjoy the project. The JTR manual is great as well. I also bought the Haynes manual for my camaro and that helped me a lot. As well as http://chevythunder.com/

I have all those conversion manuals as well.
Personnally the JTR one wasn't worth the cash paid. The others are good to read to get a baseline knowledge of fuel injection. By far the most usefull are the Camaro,Haynes,Chilton or Factory repair manuals.
