    That will probably be last on the list, I'm just going with 14 psi max. Not turboing this engine I have now, I had a whole page full of notes i believe I deleted and had everything picked out

    New engine will get a master rebuild kit with forged rods, arp bolts, arp headstuds, and better head gasket.

    I would practice building a kit on your original engine put a mild tune and learn from your mistakes so that way all you havre to fo is swap motors. It’d suck to screw something up while learning on a built block

    Unless you already have turbo experience then go at it... personally I’m glad I am learning on my stock block

    Hey ya'll. I'm looking to see if anyone is interested in a group buy for a methanol injection kit. I have one already but snow performance is willing to work with me on getting them at a better price. Details are posted in my thread, methanol 4.0.

    Time the 3rd gen 3.5ers get on this train. Seems like a very similar set up even with a "Atkinson" operation under low load... That torque is nuts and its across the whole rpm range basically

    Believe me, when the capability to use twin ecoboost turbos arrives, this truck will get them. And they will be glorious.

    Man if i had a place to store it I would have, it was kinda a leaky mess of an engine but it ran just fine. Now I'm looking at getting another just in case haha, that's life

    It was a messy little motor, I only bought my taco for the shell haha. Someone ended up putting it in an 83 pickup, so at least it's being used... Auto trans and all haha
