Well since a this **** has almost 100 views and no responses I'll try and make things easier for you guys...I just want to do a freshening up of the motor. What do you guys recommend on replacing now along with gearing it up for turbo later? Once again here the goal is to do a reliable mild turbo build...anyone? Anyone?...............

I recently purchased a jets that I want to rebuild to give it a little refresher and to also build to go turbo. I want to spend about 3k on the motor alone. What do you guys suggest. I have a gt40 turbo already and just plan to run somewhere between 300 to 500 whp. Please advise what I should purchase motor wise and a nice street clutch that my wife can still drive...thanks for the help...
