Title: 83 GT turbo engine
Post by: rodster on January 13, 2011, 12:46:55 AM

800 mile engine on ebay. Yellow paint daub on gray oil filter. Common on 84's and 85's as well?

ebay listing changed from 86 SVO to 83 GT turbo....  >:(  may want to move this out of the SVO section

Let's leave this here ,it is an earlier 145HP engine like in Turbos Mustangs and Xr4ti's.

If Rod want's to edit I can move to the Paint Daub section.  with this..

P.S.  Looks like the only thing wrong/changed on this motor is the lower crank pulley.
It has been replaced with a 1986 pulley/note the scares.

 to look at it, apart from the engine mounts and turbo set-up that looks almost exactly the same as an 84-5 engine.
 
 How did you save the pics from the listing?? i wasn't able to.

Off topic but I find myself now using 4 or 5 browsers to achieve information/results on the web !

After years of using Chrome I have found that Opera  http://www.opera.com/ is much better.   (and really good for Iphone , compared to safari)

P.S.  But you still have to use IE for search Craigslist globally !
