RE: [BaadAssGremlins] TURBO?

["John W Rosa" <JohnRosa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 

Aww.,...be nice, Bartdude.

 

There's all sorts of ways to build power. Turbos are just another.

 

It's not always so much about dollars alone. It can be about how

many MORE dollars. For instance-

 

You've got a nice, running 258-powered Gremlin. You'd like more

power. But you've already got a good chunk invested in the car.

Rather than yank a perfectly good mill, wasting the portion of funds

it accounts for...a turbo might be a good choice.

 

It's certainly less effort than finding and installing all the needed

V8 components..including buying a V8 motor and tranny...and

rear...and springs....and...

 

It's also likely cheaper than the 4.0L swap I'd prefer to do, for

which you've got to locate a good 2WD donor (if you want the

4speed auto, too).

 

Another value is in simply doing things differently....something

we AMCers can all appreciate.

 

[But SBC swaps.....that's not hot-rodding. That's surrender. :) ]
