What are the difference from 1985 to 86-93?


I am asking because everything i see is for 86-93. i know mine(85) is carb and 85 came with 7.5 rear but i have a 8.8. Reason i'm alittle frustrated is cuz i cant find a a/c delete pulley for 1985. All i see listed for 85 is the hardware kit to relocate the p/s pump to where the a/c is. Although everywhere it says 86-93 can i still use the a/c delete pulley from like upr?

the FRPP kit should fit your car. my 85 was a non-AC car and it had the same brackets as my 89 with the AC delete kit. the FRPP kit IMO is alot better looking than the other types of AC delete kits.

BTW the FRPP kit IS the one that relocates the P/S pump to the AC spot.

yeah i just don't like those kits. the extra idler pulley is not too cool. that kit weighs more than the FRPP kit, plus it
costs almost twice as much. but if thats what he wants...

Check THIS page out for the differences. Basically:

'85 - Carb or CFI, single exhaust but with dual tailpipes, 7.5" rear-end.
'86 to '93 - EFI, true dual exhaust, 8.8" rear end.

Aside from what's on that page I'm not sure if there's a difference when doing an AC delete. You might post this question
at www.FourEyedPride.com as they know more about 79-86's.
