I was planning on doing it myself, but I'm really glad I had help!

I admire the help you had. Just goes to show how tight-knit the community really is and that they all showed up like they did. That's totally cool. Smiley

Getting the motor out is doable by yourself, but a little help sure doesn't hurt. But it really does help to have an extra few sets of hands dropping it back in, though. Aligning everything, controlling the hoist, etc. I did it by myself, but it would have been easier with at least one more person.
I agree 100% with ya, John!  This is a good group.  And they actually thanked me for buying lunch!  Crazy

That's okay.  I still have time to make cards and watch cheesy movies on the Oxygen network.  And don't suggest a pshych exam... I don't know if I'd pass.  LOL

Now you're talking. Even one turbo kit while initially more expensive will make more power I saw a site awhile ago that had kits for fox and SN cars that were pretty reasonable.
Here's a hellion kit for foxbody cars http://www.hellionpowersystems.com/kit_86_93.php. They're still working on one for the SN cars.

You can find the old Incon kits on eBay for fairly cheap. I saw one a while ago sell for around $1800. They're capable of making something like (from what I recall) 500 rwhp on a mostly stock setup.

The same as any other car.  The turbo doesn't care what it's on really.

So you're gonna throw a stroker in there, right? Have you picked what engine series to start with? Are you going with the popular 90* smallblock, or perhaps something else?
