eBay (LA): turbocharged LD28?

Buy it, sell it, negotiate, haggle, drag it out from under the workbench or behind the garage and make it someone else's problem!

It's not advertised as having a turbo, but look at this:

I've asked for more pictures of this side of the engine.

They've added some additional photos but none of the manifold side of the engine. Is that exhaust manifold consistent with the L28 turbo Z engine or something different? Since I haven't seen the turbo exhaust I can't tell for sure.

Also, can you tell if the IP is different? I can't see it well enough to know for sure.

It may just be a 280Z turbo setup slapped on to the LD28 engine, which is the fairly stock adaptation I have been thinking about. It is however, very curious. I'd like to see more and better photos of it.

Anyone of the group close to this seller?

I don't see any add'l photos over the three that I originally saw. Too low-res to make out much.

Rafe's in Southern California and appears to be the closest, unless he's gone into the army by now. LA is 400 miles from me, a little too far.
Maybe there are others closer who haven't given their location.
BTW, why is it that some members don't want to let us know even in a general way where they're located?
