Thank you gentlemen for answering my question. Sounds to me like I can strip my messed up 88 down to the nitty gritty (keep the good stuff for spares for my nice 87), pop in a 5spd setup and have a nice track car. I just wonder if I could get around replacing the cracked windshield with a lexan piece rather than the super-expensive replacement glass as the car probably wont even be street legal. Another thing I think I would have interest in doing is ditching the original dash and gauge pod entirely in favor a fabricated lightweight dash and a cluster of separate aftermarket gauges. The dash wiring in my 88 has ISSUES. When it is running the idiot lights work but the tach and oil pressure gauges don't, and if it is running and you move the turn signal lever the oil pressure gauge goes from dead to pegged on high. I couldn't begin to guess.
