Like everything else in life , DETAILS MATTER !!!!

But now , that she's been dead a good 50 years , not so much .
Get the point I'm tryin to make here ?????

Re: 89 TTA Motor

That makes no sense. That motor would make a great swap. Much better and faster than a regular small block.

Dude , what I said makes TONS of sense , is the engine a pristine low mileage pullout of an unfortunately wrecked car ,

OR ,

is it instead a rusted solid boat anchor not even suitable as a core ?

like I said , details matter ......

Sure. Where are you located, what are all the details of the motor, and how much are you asking?

If I owned an ‘89 Turbo Trans Am that needed an engine, most definitely.
