how do you identify a 7Mgte

cykornr · Jul 21, 2006

I am looking to buy a jdm engine, I want to be sure it is a 7MGTE. Are there any identifying marks, on the block, that would identify it as a turbo?

turbo oil drain hole, two threaded holes on intake side for knock sensor (GE has one). those should be the most obvious.

Is it coming with a turbo? I think that one would be obvious... Oil pan has an oil line in it also, ge doesn't.
