How can I tell non rev from rev up
I seriously can't believe how hard it is for some of you to wrap your heads around what comes with a DE and what comes with a revup. This should have been a two post thread...op posting the thread and the post hitting the ground....insane.

OK, here is my question... I destroyed my engine in my Supercharged 05 Sedan 6MT (Rev-Up), and am looking for a replacement engine. How can I tell if the engines for sale are Rev-up or not? Since I have a Rev-up, I want to find another Rev-up motor to replace it with. 90+% of the time the motor resellers just know that it came out of a 05-06 G35 Sedan, but don't mention if it came from a 5AT or 6MT. If you ask, they have no clue as to what a Rev-up motor is, but will say that the motor will fit my car. Yes, I know it will fit, but is it the "correct" motor for my car...
Since all the motors are "VQ35DE" motors, is there any other engine code, etc. to designate it as a Rev-up motor if the motor has been removed from the donor car?
Thank you,
Ian
