Well I'm rebuilding this to stock. The engine ran fine when it was stock with the turbo. The big weak link was the stock fuel system. I'm just askin if the engine will run at 11/10000" clearance in the main bearings.

It'll probably be 10psi and I wasn't expecting much past stock. Probably 4800rpm at the most. Stock max hp is at 4200rpm and id imagine the turbo would let it breath a little higher


69 Buick Special Deluxe. Intercooled Turbo Chevy 250 @ 15psi on a stock long block. It's kinda fast.
