uhhh i dunno much about the motor in those things but make sure it's not know to fail in major ways then of course internal work your not going to go past 260 tops without internals. you not going to get anything cheap your going to spend at least 2500 you have to upgrade internals and if u have a high milage block then a little bore should be done.. then of course fuel,turbo,tubing,etc. etc. NOT GOING TO BE CHEAP ( it';s not a honda)
