	My question is how do you indentify a late '85 5000 Turbo engine,
	When did this change happen in 1995, How Late? Engingine number?
	or Chassis No., Anyone have a clue? I believe that htis series also 
	has the water cooled turbo, is this correct?

	I'm trying to locate a suitable engine for use in a project,
	and believe that this series is the most desirable.
