I have been trying to remember where I had seen an article on the old 231 turbo that the author had modified. Well you can't believe how surprised I was when I clicked on one of the forums you mentioned and there it was. I thank you sir for the Before Black site. It was driving me crazy trying to remember the site. (enter tab still no work) Yea, one of the first things I learned about the 231 is that it's 3/4 of the 350. (still no work) When I started looking for the turbo controller I realized that to make the car a daily driver I needed to get a powertrain that I could maintain a whole lot easier. When the weather warms up I hope to have figured out what to put in the car. Any and all ideas will be considered. (no work) When the ice melts around here I'll check the trans housing again and look to see if it's multi or not. The trans pan does indicate a 350. Thanks again.
