Im suprised the turbo survived having strapnel run through it. Ditch the ecotec and get a series 2 buick v6.

+1, that's what I would do, but then he has to change all the plumbing so it's a big job

Why not just source an L67 bottom end? They can be had fairly cheap these days and then you have an engine ready for boost...

i would love to but would you like to help me find 1 lol i have been able to find only 2 1 from a company for 2500 witha tradein l67 and 1 for 2100 with a knock and a l67 trade in

I was just having a crack at ya, i have killed heaps of series 2 buick engines, If its the same motor that you had a sc14 bolted to then i might have been a bit weaker from that.
