Is this your old engine?

I'm in northern Cali (eureka). I bought an engine to do a t2 swap on my 89 I purchased the engine from a big wrecking yar called lkq in Redding ca with plans on rebuilding it But the engine I received had a lot of aftermarket parts on it.... So I am searching for the previous owner to possibly get more information on the build.
The car that the engine came out of, I was told had front end damage.
Not in the pics but has rc injectors and an act clutch

It also has a greddy throttle body elbow,and it looks like a bnr turbo.not bad

Chodson 08-20-16 01:20 PM

Turbo says Garrett t04 air stream on it

The hot side looks stock. Bnr machines them to fit a to4 compressor on the factory hot side.

Dude I got to know how much you scored that engine for lol

Chodson 08-21-16 02:30 AM

forgot to mention that it still has the little overheating tabs on the engine. looks like a professional rebuild to me.. very recent hopefully

I guess nobody saw the gilmer pulleys on it either..?
If the engine held good compression and you got it for that price then you got a great deal man!.Congrats!

Wow. That is a insane deal. Time to search lkq in a few weeks.

LKQ probably put the heat tabs on, not the builder.

RotaryEvolution 02-03-17 09:30 AM

it's probably blown, and why it was at an LKQ.
