Two Questions:
1. are there any sources for turbo 3.1 parts?
2. what are the major mechanical differences between a stock nat. asp. 3.1 and the turbo version, i.e computer, crank, timing ect.
i am considering converting my nat. asp. 3.1 to a turbo and when i foudn that GM, Mclearen and ASC already did it i figured why blow a motor when i can just use a "stock" setup. ok thanks to all who post
