Default picked up my new 10v turbo motor today.....

Time to get started on the process of installing it in my 85 4kq. How much time/work is this going to be? I'm pretty stoked to get started on this whole thing as soon as my classes are done in 3 weeks. Just hopeing I can have it done by mid May.

Any hints, tips and/or general knowledge would be greatly appreciated.

Default Watch the cost...

I started doin'the "ya might as well"s during my project and quickly smoked my budget.

That being said, the results are so worth it!

Jared is right, go EFI. CIS sucks for tuning/tweaking.
