bratsrus1 Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Hi Bobby This is jerry, sounds like somebody that had the car before you got it did an engine swap and stuff the turbo on that engine. Some of the stuff i have seen and heard about makes you wonder how safe the cars are on the road. Thats what most likely happen. Thanks Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seahag1978 Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 After 20+ years, so many of these cars have been bastardized. Missing parts... unknown parts... I wonder how half of them run. Mine is the champ of the practice! Thank God for this board! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just pissed off at it at this point? or are you all still looking for a 2.2 motor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. RX Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Gee, I'm sitting here wondering, "What is the differenece between a N/A head and a turbo head?" The only thing that I can think of is that the right head (#1 and 3) has an oil passage drilled in it. Otherwise it is the same as a N/A head. If there is a difference, can any body tell me (show me) the difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subarutex Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 Corky... NA heads could be single intake port.... like carb and spfi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. RX Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Corky... NA heads could be single intake port.... like carb and spfi.If so, they wouldn't bolt to a MPFI intake manifold. I'm assuming that this engine is running or complete, so if it is bolted all together, they would be either MPFI heads or turbo heads, and the only difference between those two is the oil passage.
