other wise, get a crashed BA/BF XR6/T and do a conversion. i have seen it successfully done, and ive only done the engineering of parts and installation of the engine for it, but im no auto sparky. other than that just call JMM (Jim Mock Motorsport) and get a DEV5 SS engine. not to sure if its a complete engine or weather its a rebuild kit.

What's a dev5 ss engine?? Really concidering gettin a loan, tried selling the car n had no interest so I guess I might aswell do somethin gnarly with it

strongest engine that JMM build (that i know of) and easy to turbo with little stuff needed. all the rocker/cam gear and bottom end are really good. i have mate with a '92 EB runs a turbo at 15psi and its a weapon. i dont know how much his set up cost tho.

not qualified yet. nearly done cert I and II. and there is a difference between engineering and make something, and being an engineer. and im doing a cert II in automotive.
