14820, Engine rebuild? Posted by 92redman, Feb-14-02 10:03 AM
Hey guys my question is about a possible engine rebuild. Here it goes: I have a 92 Talon with about 137,000 miles on it and I am looking to go turbo or heavy nitrous in another year. Would it be worth it to try and rebuild my engine for handling the turbo or would It be safer and better off to look for a lower mileage 420a to build for turbo/nitrous?
thanks guys.

rebuilding it would be cheaper me thinks...

You don't have a 420a in your car. Only 95-99 non-turbos use 420a. Not 92's.
This means if you do buy a 420a it won't be a simple replace engines deal.
