NO !!!- Motor mount provisions are different. A late motor will work in an early car though.--------------------------------------------------
Hi,Thinking about buying the engine that Rick saw on ebay. I emailed the owner - he swears its only got 100k. He also has an 86 with 170k - but isn't that a bit high?
Its a pretty cheap engine - almost too good to be true - after my recent experience I am a bit distrusting.
So, my trusty friends on the board ~ what do you think??
Thanks, Denise
