Message Well, the good news is I got my old block out.
A few other pics of the 45 minute removal.
My Dad, can't beat 40 years of turning wrenches helping you out.

As you can see most everything possible was already striped off the block due to the fact that I've slowly been raping the NA of various pieces needed for the new Block.


However, upon trying to fix some wastegate auctiator problems I was re checking the "clamping force" and the light hit the D/S turbo wastegate opening just right, and there is two different cracks. Now both myself and my father have looked these turbo's over several times. How this escaped our notice before is amasing.
The problem being now that the cracks go through the housing and spider off somewhere inside the turbo. So now I basically have two paper weights.

What I'm asking for is some help on narrowing down some turbo idea's for me to start my lengthy research about them.
I'm looking for something where I can keep stock IC piping, and my ported exhaust manifolds. I currently have stock 333cc and stock IC's, but will upgrade them accordingly in due time.
Basically turbo's that will produce more boost, but without having to re-work the heads and bottom end.

Thanks in advance and for reading this long ass post.
