Price for 270hp 2.3L turbo?

Skyman · 01-25-2001, 01:57 AM

I have a deal on a freshly rebuilt 2.3L turbo with a ported head and custom cam. Full engine w/ turbo and everything. What would you pay for this? Could I drop it in somethin? Anyone else interested?

I'm not sure what you are asking, but if it is a good engine, buy it. with the right waste gate, it will make 20 psi. And that's good enough for low 13s, in a notch. I am still thinking about buying an 86 SVO comp prep. Stock, that little pony will run high to mid 13s and with a waste gate, 12s are attainable. So, if the engine is from a good shop that you trust, it should be worth about $1500-$2200. But give more info on it and I can help more.
