Shortblock questions Hey guys I was hoping you could give me some info. I got a friend who I think is getting ripped off by a shop.
My question is if a motor is built with a 15 psi blower in mind, but halfway through its decided to run a 15 psi turbo set-up instead, would a built short-block (i.e. forged internals etc.) handle either set-up? Basically is their a glaring difference between a Blown short-block and a turbo short-block that wouldn't let the blown short block survive under a turbo? I've always thought that boost is boost. thanks
