<< Sounds very interesting! Does the 5-cylinder diesel have the same
mounting/size/shape/height characteristics as the 5-cylinder gas motors?

 In other words, will it work with Ken's kit?

 Also, how hard are these to find?

mike, youd be better off with an engine like the one in your '89 TQ....finding
a good used '81-'83 5cyl TD is like finding a needle in a haystack...there
were very few 5000 turbodiesels imported to the US..
i had located a '86 5000 turbo being parted in NH  the guy wants $500 for the
motor.. that seems like a good deal...
