yeah that ad is alittle old i have put the rear seats back in. the pics of the engine are with the zzp big turbo kit the only visible differances are the upper charge pipe and a catch can and im selling because i just bought a fox body 5.0 turbo project and im getting back into drag and out of auto-x so i dont have alot of use for it anymore. the car needs about 1000 bucks to be fully functional so i figured id list it at about 1000 or 2 below kbb

-Tial Type S BOV? Those dont exist
-Charge piping isnt pictured, neither is a BOV.
-MAF is a cheap replacement.
-Find your coolant leak so people dont assume the coolant is leaking into your oil.....

most of the 'problems' could be easily fixed and taken out of the ad.

if the coolant leak is in the head gasket that could be a pretty big problem if left alone

a gallon over under two months of driving? That's already a huge problem. Head gaskets aren't cheap either. 12k is a decent price considering the parts tho.

was it too complicated for you and you just threw parts in it and now you just want to get rid of it ..
Aren't as simple as the vettes and other v8's , not nearly the support ..


Even tho we all know that you had problems with it in earlier threads .. Can we get some details? The details you listed don't talk anything about possibly installing the pistons wrong ... etc ... Just remembering from older threads.

That would be why it's being sold ... I remember you saying something about new pistons and other goodies after that it never ran right and you couldn't get it the way you wanted to so you are just toasting it ?


Did you even try tuning it with the new HPTuners beta that allows you to boost the fuel up ..


ZZP offers a secondary fuel rail or a new cam with a lobe now that will make this thing run E85 at 500 Wheel+ Maybe more with all the goods you have.

You might want to check that stuff out before you get rid of it .....

Wish I had 12k You should be able to get 450 wheel out of the thing fairly easy before fueling mods now.
