Oh, I'm going boost. Just a different fuel.

I just use the truck as a mule now. I'd rather have a mule worthy truck than beat mine up using it as one. I think I've put 15,000 miles on it in the last 3 years. Hardly drive it anymore.

I've had mine on CL for about a week or so and had a kid want to trade me a Dodge stratus and a tuned Eclipse for it That was the only hit I've got on it. I really do like the truck and the more I think about it I'm just gonna keep it.

It pissed me off last week when the passenger side exhaust manifold started leaking, that's when I said I'm sick of it and put it up for sale I have everything to fix it, just need to find the time, plus the passenger side is going to be even harder to work with than the drivers side was. I'm really not looking forward to it.

it's out of an '02, unknown mileage I'd honestly go thru it before running it


I've got a set of GT-500 rods lined up for it too, so it'd be good to go once gone thru, fresh gaskets, bearings, rings and a valve job...



I'm going with this snail fed navi motor or else I'd finish it
