kh vs mc turbo engine differences.

[scott thomas]

[ Converted text/html to text/plain ]

I know alot of about the kh. I had one and have a technicians
training manual for "the new engine".
8.3-1 compression, single knock sensor, 2.1 liter. k26 oil cooled
turbo. Dual oil filters; one for the engine, a smaller for the
turbo. The second half of 85 added the water cooling feature. 140hp,
145 ft/lbs torque.

Well, I hate to point out the obvious different, but if I don't,
maybe no
one will :)
The KH is 2.1L compared to the MC 2.2L.
I don't know a whole lot about 10v turbos but I know the MC has the
watercooler turbo whereas the KH has the oil-cooled turbo.
Also, I believe that MC motors used a single knock sensor where the
KH did
not have a knock sensor.  This is all based on what I've seen in the
junkyards, where 5000 turbos are becoming more and more common.
For the record, even in the yards, the injector cooling shroud is
always
broken... :)
Merry motoring!
