I've found a turbo 5K without manifolds. It's going for $200. It sounds like a bargain, but I'm not to sharp on prices and stuff like that to do with turbos. What's the verdict?

Nothing really makes that block "turbo"...and it was over priced anyway!! :P

 

Have a search around and have a look at mine and others cars. :wink:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ What he said.

Alrighty will do guys. Any idea on prices to get a turbo engine?

the only thing that made that block turbo ready was it had been bored out 40" and had larger dished pictons to lower comp.

 

but it wasnt worth $200, needed new pistons, rings and a rebore.

 

i sold it for $120 if i recall correctly.

 

cheers scott

There is an old saying :P

 

:wink: HOW FAST DO YOU WANT TO SPEND :D

 

That will determine how much it costs you,are you talking a K series engine

I'll build you a turbo 5k if you want!! what do you want...a motor for $1000!! or a fuel injected, t25 stainless mani wearing complete motor for about $2000......

 

or maybe you can just read the FAQ and other relevant info (all available here) and build your self a motor for under $500! :wink:

 

and btw, the only real thing that make a k motor a "turbo motor" is the snail hanging off the side. :P

Thanks for all the feedback guys! I'll see how money goes but Taz your offer sounds very good. Once again, any feedback is appreciated.
