K26 in '87 5ktq? and ECU

[Swann, Benjamin R. (BSWANN)]

Javad, 

It was not intended to be taken seriously - notice I follwed up by asking
where the turbo is, so I could save Jason the aggravation of buying the used
turbo by getting it for myself.

Jason, in case you didn't read my sarcasm, I was kidding.  By all means, get
the turbo - I bought one used for far more (of course it came with manifold
and downpipe.  Anyway, yes it is a good deal, that is if the impeller is not
frozen/spins freely.

And if you find that one is not so good, then I have one that is all cleaned
up. 

Regards,

Ben

Why do you say that?  The watercooled K26's are amazingly reliable IME, I
have used plenty of "used" ones, never even had one rebuilt.
