Hi all, looking for some advice regarding the ea81t engine. i am looking at replacing my 81 GL wagon, as it is rusting to pieces, and i am sick of welding the thing. Found a 83 turbo wagon, only two owners and no rust whatsoever. Just wondering what these engines are like for reliability, and whether i would be best to dump my non turbo motor in it? Also, i would be swapping the auto for my 4 speed, will i need to swap the diff etc as on the ea82 models?
