Welcome back, but are you sure it has a 12 bolt? Reason I ask, this would have been expensive and not necessary to do with a 305 motor by the previous owner.

Better luck this time with your '85 Andres. Great tranny and rear end. And take it from me, nothing wrong with a 305 either in spite of what the burn-out mob say. Welcome back.
