    Swapped the G60 out of my 1990 Corrado for an ABA. Compression is perfect and the motor runs great.

    After some testing it looks like it should only need a new oil feed line and oil return line to get her to run.

    $400 obo. I'm pretty flexible on price.

    The problem was a bad oil return line. Once that is replaced it's a great engine. Had an even amount of compression across all cylinders all within spec for the motor according to the bentley.
