    Did they have the same engine? Should a damper pulley (harmonic balancer,
    crankshaft pulley, whatever you want to call it) for an 87 model work as
    well on the 89 model?

    I think there was a redesign in 1988.
    Yes, the crankshaft pulley should be interchangeable.

    The engines are virtually identical, just a few small updates. Damper pully
    from an older B230 will work fine on a newer one.
