Got trans and turbos off. Motor out tomorrow. What a pain someone has has there hands in this car screwing stuff up. Pretty much half the turbo bolts broke so gonna be a party fixing those up. Lol. But all off and apart for now.

Got the motor out and torn down. Everything looks super clean. It still has the Callies crank in it, TRW pistons unsure if those were stock, and a set of h beam rods that I don't think they ever left Callaway with. I posted pic of cam if anyone know if that is stock too.

#90-005 was the test car and demo for Callaway Cars in 1990/1991 and as I recall, had around 44k miles when it was listed for sale in 1999 with two new turbos.. The broker had that car, and the red 1989 coupe w/ 1,600 miles. I bought the coupe.

So a Callies crank was standard, at least for a -90? (Or -91 since your car seems to have been updated?) I've read that somewhere but couldn't find the source when I was writing my article for Club Corvette Sweden.Echerbst wrote: ↑Tue Jan 21, 2020 5:50 pm Got the motor out and torn down.

Thanks’ for posting a lot of pictures, it's very interesting to see what later cars look like when disassembled
