Good parts aren't cheap, but they're worth the cost for the reliability. Ebay turbos??? I know that this project isnt gunna be cheap, but its a hellova lot cheaper than a new vehicle. Plus its alot cooler. With the engine and tranny from the project truck sold i can make a bit of money to help pay off some of the cost for this project. The truck i was looking for has a 300 I6 and a five speed manuel. Listing doesnt say what tranny it is, but im pretty sure its an M5R2(Mazda trans). I know that those are great motors, and there is parts to give em bigger power than the 145hp.(i think thats the rating, i have to check again.) But the mpg isnt that great, plus the sound of an Olds 350 Rocket under that hood would be soooo much sweeter.
