Title: surprise, surprise, surprise!!!
Post by: turboranger91 on August 19, 2007, 12:55:16 AM
i bought a spare 2.3 turbo motor several months ago.  i drove 100 miles into kansas to pick it up.  it was a complete motor with accessories still attached.  included with the motor was a computer, harness, carb'd lower intake, svo intercooler, extra dizzy, fuel rail, a4ld with 3000 stall and shift kit.  all this for $80. 

i started breaking into it today and found a few other goodies.  it's got some aftermarket cam, aftermarket valve springs, and arp head studs!  the studs alone are $100.  i'm not sure exactly what cam or springs it's got, but i'll find out more as i get into it further.  i can't wait to pop the head and the pan off and take a look at the bottom end.

i think i got my money's worth.

How can you tell the stall of the converter?  And yes that sounds like a hell of deal. (for a bunch of 2.3 stuff :flame:  hahahahahah ;) )
