Wouldn't you know it, first II in a VERY long time at the junk yard and it's a V8! I'm still looking for some 2.3 parts, but anyways.

Is it worth it to anyone for me to get the oil pan, exhaust manifolds or tranny?

It was an auto, but I didn't crawl underneath to see if it was a C4. Did the V8's come with any other auto's? The motor looked complete except for the valve covers. I have no need for these things and getting them would be kind of a PITA, but if it helps a fellow II owner I'll get them.

Let me know.

Ok, went to the junk yard today and the motor and tranny were gone. The car's body is thrashed and by the amount of rust has been for quite some time. I really didn't want to pull thoes parts, I just didn't want them to get crushed so I'm glad somebody did get them.

Any chance there was a good fuel sending unit on it?
