I restored my fathers 78 sc converted turbo look. The engine and transmission were ruined so my mechanic found a 3.2 engine and 915 transmission which he thinks is '86 and from germany (231 hp version). But he was never positive. How can I verify this without taking it out? Would the number on the fan housing give me enough info? How much power do I lose if the muffler etc. is still sc? And I read sc is 200 pounds lighter, is this correct?
Help always appreciated
Thanks
Nick

very mature and articulate post from such a young man. I guess there's still hope left in the world.
