Got it a couple years ago <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />The new motor I'm hoping to get is just going to be a short block. Not sure if you saw the post from when I first joined, but one of the previous owners of the car blew the alum. block that was in the car, so it was replaced with an 03 GT short block under the 4v heads. So I am just looking to put another alum. block in the car with better pistons and rods. Stock crank and cams are fine with me.I am hoping to start the install within the next month to month and a half. Just depends on how quickly I can get the k member and hot side. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />haha thanksThe kit is not any particular kit. I am putting together and fabricating it myself. It is actaully a much cheaper route because you don't have the markup of the name brand kits that are out there, you can create the kit however you like so you don't have the same setup as someone else, and you don't have to pay that extra $2k-$3k in labor. BUT downfall is that if you don't know how turbo's work, and what kind of flow and heat/cooling they like best, you could be spending more than saving. Not saying I know ALOT, but I have definitely done my research, and talked with many people who have been dealing with and using turbo's for Years....so I guess we'll see how well I listened once I get the car running! haha</blockquote>
