2.3 Turbo engine August 27, 2009, 08:57:12 PM Its the 2.3 Turbo four out of my 85 XR7. It has around 86K miles on it and runs. May need a head gasket. Engine is located in Tripoli, Iowa and I am asking $150. Would prefer someone who could pick up out here as I don't have a truck to transport it at hand but could get one if needed. Quote Selected
