Default Very Pretty 929 for sale

I'm heartbroken. My favorite car ever is for sale due to engine problems.

Would the '89s happen to have the same components as the '94s? If so would you be willing to part out a few pieces to me?

New ad with pics

http://providence.craigslist.org/cto/844108200.html
New listing with pictures. Price to board member remains 500. for an additional 1,000 I will sell my good running 89 929, 151000 miles, new tires, brakes, exhaust etc. Buy both and all spare parts tires and wheels come with them. The other 89 is Blue blue leather interior. Both cars are currently registered and RI safety inspected.
Although I am trying to fix the gray one now, I'm learey about doing it myself. The engine is being taken apart in prep for new heads as I write this. I am fully documenting what I'm doing, what I'm disconnecting and am labeling all electrical engine connectors and placing all removed parts in bags and boxes.
To fix the gray car, two heads maybe. Valve grind gasket kit, I may have this, Timing belt covers, the two plastic ones, bolt for the idler that broke.
If you mechanically adept, you are golden!
Please note, the blue car, the runner, is used daily, 100 mile RT commute. No serious issues. A/C doesn't work but not from failure. Needs leak detection (I suspect receiver dryer) evac and recharge. It always had R12 and was never converted.
Thanks.

OK, although I am letting the ad run, I am activly trying to fix it.

HELP. This is the 18V motor. I've got the wiring harness disco'd and have started removing mechanical parts. Timing belt area is already clear. HOW THE HELL DO YOU TAKE OFF THE INTAKE MANIFOLD!!
I removed the extension things on each side. The very top part, the part with 18V stamped on it, is that the manifold too? I can see the eight manifold nuts but can't see how I'm going to get them off. Does that top part seperate from the intake manifold? Am I supposed to remove the throttle body assembly at the back of the motor?
Can someone describe how to remove the intake manifold on this engine? Once this is off, I should be able to get the heads off.
THANKS MUCH!![/align][/align]
