FOR SALE!!! Hybrid GT35 Turbo Kit and engine
Category: Accessories
Price: $3200
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part Fits (you may select multiples): Series I
Location (US State/Canada/Int): IA
Item Condition: Used
Kit was originally an Esmeril turbo kit but is now as follows:
Esmeril Manifold
Esmeril Downpipe
Hybrid GT35 Turbo (on Turblown's web site)
Tial MVS Wastegate
Cold side piping with new Samco couplers and camps
Original Esmeril BOV
all oil and water cooling lines for the turbo
original esmeril intercooler
NOTICE: WALBRO 255 FUEL PUMP WILL STILL BE NEEDED FOR A COMPLETE KIT.
there may also be some mic pieces. Hoses, camp or two that will be needed for your
setup.
I am sure i am forgetting some parts to list but any questoins and i will fill you in. I had boughten and installed all of this with a 400whp goal in mind. However, engine will be needing a rebuild so i am selling the kit and moving on to other things. Kit went on a dyno once but had Throttle body issues so never got a full pull. Car put down 220 whp at 6000 rpm on the 5lb spring. In my opinion 400whp would have been very doable if i did not have the TB issues.
Secondly, I may also be selling my motor if there is interst. Motor was rebuilt +-3000 miles ago wil esmeril apex seals and a full atkins rebuild kit with all gaskets and bearings. Steve Kan did the rebuild. The issue with the motor, and the reason for the part out is there is now an oil leak between the front houseing and the front plate. Only leaks when running. Have not done a compression test, but the motor starts, drives, and idles fine. I am not willing to do another rebuild and risk the same thing happening again.
WE WILL TALK ON THE MOTOR TO SEE WHAT YOU WOULD NEED AS FAR AS SHORT BLOCK/LONG BLOCK GOES. PRICE AS LISTED IS FOR A SHORT BLOCK.
Thats all i have and am listing at the moment. Let me know if there is interest of questions and i ill get back to you.
PRICES:
Turbo kit: $3200 obo
Motor: $1500 obo
All Prices would be plus shipping. i would prefer local pickup and would be willing to travel a reasonalbe distance to meet up with you. Larger items will not include paypal fee and that will be added to the total if you choose to use PayPal as a payment method. All of this is just seeing if there is interest. All is still installed in the car and i will post up vids and or pics if requested. Thanks for your time.

Not sure of my plans as of now. Its the front plate thats cracked not the housing. If it comes out and does not get rebuilt it will be a rew or a LS1. I have been looking into both and think they are both very doable. IF this gets rebuilt it will get mayjor port work and studding to try and prevent this from happening again. Just need to see if there is any interest in this turbo kit or if i will just go ahead with a rebuild.
liked my car... lurking in the shadows are we?

Fresh motor - just need to replace the cracked housing. Esmeril Apex seals and a full atkins seal and bearing kit was used in the rebuild. Thats around $1500 just in seals when it was rebuilt.
The more you buy, the more i can work with you on price. Offer up.

$3200 asking price now includes the Microtech engine management, injectors, and sandwhich plate.
This should now be a complere 400whp capable kit for $3200.
The walbro fuel pump will still not be included only since its such a pain to remove. They can be found in many places on the internet for around $100 i believe.
Crazy price for this full kit.
