I'm looking to move the 2.25 Petrol i pulled out of my Yellow 88 to make room for the 200Di.
When I bought it, the bottom and was sound and I replaced the head with a Turner Engineering Stage 1 Head ($750 at the time) and upgraded the cam shaft to 1 2.5 ...and replaced the Carb and Intake exhaust manifold with a 2-bbl weber set-up from a 2.5L (another $450). Only things I robbed for the conversion were (1) the alternator and (2) the top of the thermostat housing. I'd like to see it go to someone in the club and will give it two-three weeks on the board before I list it on eBay. I had about 3,800 miles on the motor after the work (I didn't ouch the bottom end and don't know how much mileage was there).
Also, I have the original single barrel carb and manifold and will include that with the sale.
