Nice to hear the project coming along. My advice is to go with an engine that was not used locally though. Knowing the way trini's drive, especially if they know that they going to be selling the engine soon and if you not going to be putting it in right away. At least if you buy it from a dealer you can get 1 month warranty.

Turbo connections has some good engines and reasonable prices, talked to the guy already and he real cool, offers a decent warranty on his stuff. If price is your major concern foreign used center in curepe has some bess prices but the warranty sucks.

Saw a sunpro 3 in one gauge set up for $400 brand new, pm me if you interested. Hopefully my project should begin pretty soon as well.

some thing you could experiment with is putting some sort of extra heat shielding by where the exhaust passes by the engine sump. Iam using lagging but still waiting for my straightner to finish my vehicle (these fcukers does take long)so when i get it back i will update you
