Message great example of a classic in great condition, enjoy it.

Are you the only owner since new?

Speaking of maintenance:

With that very low mileage but 30 years on the clock have you done or know if the timing belt has been serviced? That belt only needs to break in "1 place" and the rest of the belt will look great but will badly damage that engine! Then a TT swap might be the way to go?

Manual or slush box? Hope the former to get more zip from the NA engine.

Do you still have the pintle injectors in there or have some or all failed? If some or all failed did you (or someone) upgrade all 6 to the superior OEM pintleless type of 93+? FWIW 2 of my 92 NA pintle injectors took a dump 10 years ago so I replaced all 6 with OEM pintleless design, better engine response was the result.

At the time I wasn't aware of the injector adaptors to mate to early lower manifold and allow use of original fuel rail so I did the 300 Degree rail with SS lines and AN fittings. Extra expense and overkill for the NA but no 20-20 hindsight then! Never did the recommended on TT harness change for injectors + juice power kill when shut down, no problems to date all ohm perfect, using E10% + Stable because car sits a lot these days.

I have owned mine new since 92 and love it - enjoy your classic.
