probably t3/4 hybrid,or maybe just a t3,i here those spool a lot quicker.hopefully a lot of horsepower,haha,im not really sure the numbers but im building the motor with pistons,rods,cam,injectors and turbo,thats really my goal for nowim not really sure what the hp would be with that.

Engine management of course. Then a strong headgasket and ARP headstuds. Then dip into the block parts for more strength. Then fuel injectors if necessary.

I would be extremely careful with it in the meantime.

that sucks man for sure, but you wouldnt really need a cam to start off, there are other more crutial parts you will need...and $1000 should be a nice start. But before you really buy anything i would do LOTS of research!
