if your going to go turbo dont forget to do bearings and rings.

 

Space I'll try not too, but then again, doesn't a budget build sound fun?

And I will definitely remember to do bearings and rings. Who knows what condition junkyard ones will be in haha.

 

Ouch, I was expecting more out of that Monte. I would almost guess that you have a 305, but that's too MUCH hp for that, lol. I bet your 6th gen is making more hp right now, but your 4th gen will be easier to wake up. Have fun with the build!

 

x2 i figured it would be a little higher, but i guess 260-270 at the crank is good for a mild engine. makes more than mine :P

 

I guess thats true, and thanks

 

have fun man. keep us updated on what you do to it

i meant in the bottom end of your motor. gotta figure cylinder pressure is going to go up with a turbo, and god only knows who has been playing with that motor, and what was done to it. i highly recommend getting the casting numbers off of the block and heads.

 

If it blows up it blows up haha

I dynoed it twice with 18:1 a/f ratio. Its pretty solid so far.
