boost or all motor?
#16
thanks for all the info. i just love the power of a car thats all motor, but ill be damned if i invest alot of money for an all motor engine and get smoked by someone who just spend 5K on a turbo. im leaning towards buying the stage 1 short block from gtmotorsport with low compresion and down the road buying a turbo for the car, or supercharger. Can i run that block for now with stock heads or do i need to change other parts prior to swaping the block?

and as a DD i belive it will be bulit proof just remember that you spent that money on it so you HAVE to go boost so that you get your moneys worth if not youll end up 5 yrs later with a built engine and still no boost

i know i would have to boost sooner than later, but i need my car back and since i need a block why not start by getting something thats going to be able to handle the power. it sucks knowing that my car will be slower for a while, but i need to start somewhere. so its o.k to run a built block with stock heads? thats why i wanted n.a motor so i would not be pressured to boost the car so fast. with a n.a motor little by little i would be able to buy parts and not sacrifice having a g thats slower than a stock g.

i do understand that stock heads are not going to cut it when we are talking 500hp, but im thinking that once i do the block i will start working on getting the heads ready and boost. i just want to make sure that i can still drive the car with no issues with a worked block and stock heads.
