I'll check this now.

From the picture of my motor above, can you confirm it's a 2PG? Seeing some conflicting pictures.

That's not an 86, the belt is running front to rear. I'm thinking it's an 89-newer 3pg

The serial number on the frame is 606486. Guessing they swapped in a newer motor at some point.

Is there an ID tag on the passenger side footwell like this?

If this motor is a 3pg is compression of 130 still concerning?

Yes it is way too high for either one, could ya post up more pics. Perhaps I'm not seeing that one correctly as it's pretty small.


EDIT; Oooops I didn't see those last pics. Yep, I'd say it's a 90
