Ive been involved with a few 3.2 to 3.2 turbo conversions. Its reallya pretty straight forward project (or it is now after a few of these conversions). This is NOT an inexpensive project though!!

youll have to:

*get the drivers side cam machined for a scavenge pump
*get a scavenge pump
*Have an intercooler made
*get a set of headers
*get a turbo
*modify the oil tank to accept oil from the scavenge pump
*lower the c/r
*replace the motronic with another EFI system


Since your engine has 231K on it add all the above to the price of a basic engine overhaul!!

All the hardware should be relpaced with premium stuff ie ARP or Race Ware. The connecting rods should be replaced with Carillo, or Pauter rods....

Then after everything is buttoned back up, you have to map the EFI figure a few(more than a few if from scratch) hours for that.

Im sure I left something out.... There are 3 of these coversions in various states of completion in my friends shop now
