I have a chance to get a complete 87-88 turbo motor and 5speed tranny with extra parts for 850 would this be a good buy? It comes with computer and vam meter. Only thing it lacks is radiator and something else.

that's not bad at all make sure you get EVERYTHING wiring wise though

$850 sounds like a lot to me

[brianlepard28]

So what all do I need wiring wise? I though I could use my wiring haness and just re pin it. It comes with the computer and vam meter.

$850 is a lil on the high side I picked up two motors for $500, so it could be had for cheaper also vary's from location to location.

Also yes you can just re pin your harness, in fact I believe its easier and thats what I did. There are nice articles on how to do it on stinger performances website.

Would it be wise to go ahead a re build one of te motors? I think the guy told me that stock is rated for 190hp. I'm new to all this so I don't really know to much about them. I was thinking about gutting the intake is that a good idea or not

[91vert*Brandy]

Yeah I paid $300 when i bought mine.

Rebuilding is a good idea as long as you know what your doing. Everybody here will help with any problems you come across. gutting the intake(s) is a good idea..

Its only a good idea if you want to run HIGH boost and or high rpm. If you gut the intake using a stock tune, it will give you no gain and its just a waste of time, and money.
