I am doing the infamous auto 5sp swap and pulled the auto out of my 85 yesterday, there is a computer box in front of the tranny and TC shifters that was under the bezel is this the engine computer or is it just for the tranny? can I just get rid of it and if not what do I do with it after I get the 5sp in there is not a bezel to cover it now.  :dunno:  :help:

That is the tranny computer.  I disconected and removed mine when I swapped out my auto without any problems.
