Hit a moose in the justy
You are incorrect. The "greenies" have only (re)introduced moose on the Grand Mesa in CO (12 cows 25 bulls total). (actually it was the CDOW that did it). The rest of the moose are here on there very own accord. Always have been, and their numbers are increasing in a lot of areas. In fact if those greenies had there way, they would introduce wolves into RMNP, drastically reducing the success of the moose in and around the park, where their population is currently exploding. And no I am not a "greenie" nor do I want wolves to be reintroduced here, I just get a kick out of these things. You know, someone hits a moose, so someone takes the opportunity to kick a hippy in the nuts. Where was this, Zyewdall? And one more thing for the record. The first planting of Moose on the Mesa was 3 individuals that were originally captured right here in colorful Colorado. Most of the others were caught in Utah.

April Snow.... 34"
Hey Zeke! Down here in Lyons we got about......0". It rained for three days! Carol and I drove up to Estes on Sunday and there was a solid 24" still at Allenspark and Meeker Park. We got nothing. I bet I don't live 15 miles from you as the crow flies. Elevation is everything! The river sure did get high here today!

Who's Brat in Lyons, Colorado?
Nay! The silver wagon in my driveway is super sweet. Stop and look it over sometime. DannyC I agree, I can tell you from what I saw It wasn't worth that much, But whatever, maybe somebody who REALLY wants a brat will see it. Jerry, do you know if the guy has another brat, cause there is a pretty nice green brat parked at a house up here. 1,600 people live in this town and I think half of them own old Subarus!

Zeke I'm not collecting them, they are just breeding in my driveway! DannyC- price on the window is $2300. If your interested I could grab the # off the window for you. PM me if you want it.

Who's Brat in Lyons, Colorado?
Just wondering if somebody here owns the brat for sale at the U-pump-It in Lyons. I don't want to buy it, just wondering. Saw it has a weber, made me think maybe somebody here owns it. I'm the guy who drives the gen one camo wagon. Hi neighbor.

What is a 1984 Turbo Traction Wagon Worth?
I think you've got that backwards. It is worth as much as a buyer will pay for it. You, as the seller may think it has more value, but that is a figure that only means something to YOU. You can say it's worth a million dollars because that is what you will "let it go for", but get real. It's worth whatever someone will pay you for it.

need pic of inside distributor of ea71
here ya go!
-
so what would it take?
I think what turbone was saying is that without swapping the heads, you will have a high compresion turbo engine. The ea81 turbo engines had lower compression heads than the n/a engines. I would assume ea82 was the same. What you are talking about doesn't seem like a reasonable way to get a little extra oomph. swap the whole engine and harness or you will most likely create a high maintenance nightmare.

clutch interchangability
A gen one ea71 4 wheel drive clutch and p-plate should be the same as a gen two 1600 front wheel drive clutch and p-plate, correct?

Where to get a wrist pin tool?
Thanks for the tip, but OUCH. Over $300 bucks. Craftsman has a slide hammer for 30 bucks, if I could find a hook small enough I would be in bussiness.

79 EA71 water pump
No, the gen 1 water pumps are different. I think your suspicions are correct, and the 1980+ ea71s look like the same as an ea81, not quite sure if they will actually bolt up, but they won't bolt up to the gen one cases. That is for sure. You need one that has a round outlet that points towards the rear right? I have several if you want I can send you a known good one, was on a running car three weeks ago. $5 and you pay shipping, but you're in Seattle, probobly won't get to you till the end of the week. PM me if you want it. or if anyone else wants one, like I said I have I think 6 of them.

brat shock question
No it won't, The ea81 (the brat) has just a shock, no spring. Unless he modified it to take the ea82 suspension, which some folks have done.
