I pulled the 2.3 out of my 88 a few weeks ago and if anyone wants it they can just come and get it. It ran fine when pulled. I'm doing a V-8 conversion. The motor has about 140k on it. Amazing good runner considering the milage. Great to toss in a ranger or stang. Engine is located In Windsor Locks, CT 06096. About 10 minutes north of Hartford. Please PM me or call me @860-869-9822 if interested. Otherwise it'll find a new home in a wrecking yard somewhere.
