Default Still would like to trade 3.8/for stock motor

I still have my rather built 3.8 motor. It now has turbos and is basically complete. I am willing to trade for a very healthy stock motor, motor with K24s etc. Send me an email. I am open to suggestions. My motor is complete, needs a few things to get up and running.

Email me at PorschephD@imagineauto.com or drop me a call. Thanks.

Stephen,

It would be helpful if you could spec out what has been used to get the engine built.. P&Cs, compression, turbos, intake type, MAF, sealing, heads, rods, ECU program if any yet done, exhaust, etc.. It might help with the swap or sale..

Thanks!

The motor is 3.8 Mahle spigots oringed, with new heads, double flame ringed, heads welded and reinforced.

Heads blended and ported and flowed, pistons relief cut. Ti retainers, custom valve springs and locks, ARP headstuds, carrillo rods, 51.50 intake valves 43.50 exhaust valves, custom guides and proper blending. I have all headwork numbers from the machine shop and superflow test data numbers as well. Cams are based on valve size and flow numbers and over all goal of desired powerband. Custom iA valve covers, twin plug.

Currently it has Gt28 Garretts on it with a 996TT output flange. I have the flanges to weld in. It also has brand new fabspeed headers on it.

I am sure I am leaving something out but this is most of it.

Very nice!

Friends this is perfect for someone wanting to upgrade his engine! Two final questions, is it twin plugged and would you consider cash equivalent offers? I am very tempted.

No, I have a car I need to get running as a daily driver and I don't have the time to complete and this is the fastest way to get it running.
