Your onfire Brian!! I Was going the turbo 6 route for a while, but the blowthruturbo people talked me out of it cause I was wanting a little to much out of the 6. I still have my I6 if you know anyone looking 4 one. And it didnt cost anything and nothing was cut installing my AWESOME sbc. My friend is a mechanic, so it worked out well. I may be sellin my Gremlin, not sure yet. I had a 81 Chevette with a 401 AMC(just kidding) it had a sbc in it and Im gettin it back, so I may be fixin it up. Not sure yet. Well if ya know anyone wanting a true bad car(due to the engine, of course) tell me.
