Hello,

I have an 80 TA that was originally a turbo car.

Trying to identify the motor it has now.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

On block reads 0216079 YA.

We do know that YA means auto, but going to have to do a little research.

Can you get us the VIN of the car and a better photo of the whole engine?

Thank you,
PTA Staff

Not original motor, so VIN would not help.

Here are additional pics.
