Re: '86 engine in an '85 chassis?

Hi Alan,
You will have to use the grille and hood from the '86 to provide air
to the intercooler, and of course the flywheel from the '85. You
should use the ignition and injection ecu's from the 86, which may
require using the entire wiring harness from the '86, which would
move the ignition ecu from under the passenger seat to the footrest
area which would involve attempting to fit the '86 footrest into the '85.
You could avoid all of this by leaving the intercooler off, using the
'85 air piping, or just try the '85 ecu's with the intercooler to see
how it works.
I don't think of any other modifications, but I haven't done this
swap, and with swaps it is easy to not anticipate everything.
Welcome to the List, and don't be shy about asking for help!
