Buying 86-up turbo questions



I am planning very soon to buy an 86 and up fwd 5000/200 turbo 5spd. I
have question on a few things and what to look for.

1. How do I tell if the turbo afterrun coolant pump is shot?
2. How do I tell if the abs is not working properly? (symptoms of
different failing components)
3 .                     clutch is bad?
4. How do I tell if the transmission is no good?

On 86-90 mc's is starting off from a stop a slip or spin thing. I mean do
they have a good amt. of low end torque? I have a kh with more bottom end
than an mc, so I just wanted to know. Can a kh be bolted up to an 86 and
up manual tranny. Just for reference...
