Well guys... I killed the seal in my turbo again[:@] I'm sending the .48/.60 out to get rebuilt in the next few days and I also killed 3rd, 4th and reverse gear in my transmission I guess doing brake stands on an overheated transmission is a bad thing... who knew?
Anyways I hope to have the turbo back in 2 weeks with unlimited mile warrenty for 6 months. $200 with shipping Hope to have no hands done in time for the augest car show in saskatoon

350? nah... 400 small block or a 454[8D]
make sure its carbed tho. too much trouble wiring a fuel injected motor up.. though a LT1 wouldn't be a bad idea... hmm...
