          I can help you label it. Once you "fit" it it all makes sense

              The harness is pretty self explanatory. The hardest part is routing it around everything. I have an i tb I can bring to the picnic if you are going.

                I have a good, complete head for you. It's been hot tanked and is clean though I'd have it skimmed before install.

                  How much are you looking to get for it. I'm not sure I'm going yet but if I am I'll pm you.

                    I've got an i manifold, fuel rail, injection harness, and coolant tank. They're yours for an 18 pack of Rainier.

                          ^^^ Go with the 731 head and use the matching manifold with an i throttle body and electronics. With the 731 you won't lose compression, or have a combustion chamber with the wrong shape.

                          I used to have a 731 in great condition that I was going to put on my eta before it got rear ended. I'm still bummed I never got to do that swap. The guy I sold it to put it on his eta with the stock electronics and said it felt great.

                          There's a really good thread on e30tech for tuning the stock motronic. Wideband O2 aside, you can purchase the hardware necessary for tuning for the same price as a chip, and then make all the tunes you want on your car and anybody else's. Also, Mark D has a tune for a 731 using stock eta electronics. The hard part is getting him to communicate with you enough to get it off of him.

                              The change in compression doesn't outweigh the fact that the 885 flows much much better than the 731. However, either is an upgrade so if you have a deal on 731 and you like it, give it a shot

                                I've heard that a couple times and boost is always an option in the future. If you had a choice what would you go with. And does anybody know how long this swap would take?
