I'm seriously close to parting it out unfortunately. Having a hard time making that decision for sure, but I have to do something with it. Too many nice parts to sit and collect dust.

My outlook may change if work starts to pick up soon, but it's not looking good.

What did you pay for the turbo? What would it take for you to part with it?

Don't remember what I paid. Was around $1200 and I'd probably ask $1100 for it?

Good luck

If I do part it out, the intake is spoken for. Told Fireball he has first dibs since he is using it for mockup anyway.

Check Reichard racing's website on this, but I'm thinking 1500hp?

Just checked and it's rated for 1800hp.

Yeah I guess they went out of business. Gathered that info on another forum. I will let you know if the part out begins.

Did u ever consider doing a 5.3 and having some fun with it? So maybe it's not what u want right now but at least it will hold u over till you get what u want built. They are cheap to be had and, if you pop it no big deal run to the junkyard and get another!!

Have debated this for a long time. I already have 90% of the parts to build the 370 but having it built how I want is gonna cost me. At this point spending money on a 5.3 that would more than likely pop would be a waste IMO.
