Hello,

Yes, I it is a Canadian-spec 242 GLT with the K-cammed B23E. They also had a much higher compression ratio, pulsair injection and no catalytic converters. It's a shame they never sold them in the US, they are faster than the original non-intercooled turbos and they get fantastic fuel economy.

Richard.

P.S. Full resto project starting soon and pics to be posted up on cardomain.
