Bought 85 omni with T2 swap car is red and black and came ftom canada wondering if anybody has any info??

Is it a real T2 swap or just a later manifold/intercooler on the stock block? Either way, cheap fun.

omni GLH T2
 
A real T2 will have a forged crank and the heavier rods with Mahle pistons. What head is on the car? Are the last numbers on the cylinder head casting 287 or 782?

An 85 Omni GLH should have come with a 287 head with is what is called a bathtub head. A 782 is a later head known as a swirl. The swirl has some definite shaping in the chamber to promote the flame travel. The 782 flows less and requires less spark advance. There is the possibility that someone did swap in an entire T2 motor with the better bottom end. The weak link will be the transaxle if is is still the 525, but in a lightweight omni it should not be too bad. What boost level is the car running?
