Example of what Lugnut mentioned - "Horsepower costs money"

3 liters, turbocharged, custom forged everything, 800 hp. HUGE dollars, then dyno te$ting. Likely short lifespan. No mileage expectations.

A 5cyl in a rwd? Has anyone done that?
Yes, lots of times.

The plan for my '78 240 is a turbo whiteblock.
'97 855 GLT - Hers. RN swap/16T/COP/VVT/exhaust/302s/Flashed M4.4/ chassis bracing/ 2 kid seats
'78 GLE - Waiting in the wings. Future whiteblock/T5 swap.
'97 854 T5 - Manual Swap/M4.4/COP/NA cams/P2R Brakes/16T/ chassis bracing/ XC70 nose swap - SOLD/GONE
The Others- '83 TBird turbo, '85 Mercury Marquis LTS (1 of 134), '86 LTD Wagon, '81 Granada GL, '76 Beetle, '87 F-150 5.0
