Thanks In advance Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/94881-turbo-and-gas-motor-questions/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gas rods probably won't work with it. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/94881-turbo-and-gas-motor-questions/#findComment-1684432 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're pulling the turbo motor down you'd be better off slapping a set of bearings in the turbo motor and calling it a day. There is no need for another motor unless you need a crank. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/94881-turbo-and-gas-motor-questions/#findComment-1684433 Share on other sites More sharing options...
