What year motor do I have?
I have a motor from a 2nd gen but I am not sure what year it is. How can I tell because I want to put it in a 1990 GXL. Are there any years that wont work in my 1990? I was going to use just the block will it work?

Does it have an EGR valve on the intermediate housing? S4 does, S5 does not.

It would be on the passenger side, between your 5th & 6th port actuators.

NO! That is the ACV valve. The EGR valve is on top of the engine, in the middle of the intermediate housing.
