    I'm with Chopper on this. You may want to plan on stockpiling some trannys as well.

    Plus, before I did too much thought work, I would at least take some close looks at the Mooncraft. That plumbing was pretty damned serious and actually called for a custom made front cladding to house the FMIC. There is no way you are gonna get a TMIC in there unless you go hoodless, heh.

    In the end, S/C is the best choice with it's modest power and ease. ya ya, I know, not an easy thing to find, but, occasionally, one will pop up.

    Good luck. Can't say it has never been brought up before.

    (psst.... I actually prefer turbo myself. :bwgr: )

    And before you stockpile trannys, maybe get a VX ???

    You'll find pics of the mooncraft in my gallery.

    I have a VX I just got it a few months ago and yeah it would have been stupid to design a turbo kit for a vehicle you dont have. I've seen the mooncraft turbo kit and I didnt like the design.
