Here's the situation.
I have an extra 5s engine in my parts car with 126k on it.
Once I get it out, I am planning to rebuild it over the next year or so.
I want to do a complete rebuild on it and also put a turbo on, but here's where my question comes in.
Would it be wiser to get a 3rd gen 3s, and rebuild that instead?

On a side note, after going for a "cruise" in Dustin's car yesterday, I fell in love with the way the engine feels and the amount of torque is has and just how is throws you back into your seat.

save your money, buy a 3rd gen setup from jim, clean it up, do any mantinence that needs to be done, install, and enjoy. wink.gif
