Default Wtb: early 2.5 motor

Have a blown 2.8 in my 85 couple. Looking for a replacement 2.5 to swap in.

if any of y’all know of one please let me know, They’re out there online, but local would be better.

located near Portland Oregon myself, will drive a couple hundred miles to get if the price is decent.

thanks!

You do have a better option, a 3.4 Liter 60 degree V-6. It's the ultimate evolution of the 2.8 and a huge improvement. Other than needing to use an electric fuel pump the 3.4 is pretty much a drop in replacement for the 2.8 Search the forum and the net about it and if you want mine you can have it for free.
