Bill was that a renegade car? I say just take the turbos off the black car and put a 460 with a 106mm in the orange car! That motor has to be in need or a check/refresh anyway by now dont you think?There's another $20,000+. Just going to put new rings, valve springs and some better rods in it, we'll see how it sounds spinning it to 8,000 rpm's

Thinking about it 750-800 might be a tad too much for a lighter car. I can always put smaller wastegate springs in it. The AMS-1000 doesn't care about spring size. It adds boost until your set value is met regardless of spring size.
I still have the motor. Just needs some pistons. It's a Ford, checking Ford part markings to insure that the parts are original is not possible. GM used matching serial numbers. The Ford only uses casting numbers with dates. At least that is what I am led to believe.
