^good point.
I'd replace the blown stocker with another oem block. 30r, fmic, and the rest of the supporting mods. <-----coming from a guy that has had 3 motors, 2 tranny's, 5 turbos, etc. keep it simple, the oem block will handle plenty of power, not worth going crazy. you'll end up breaking more parts than you can keep up with. I've invested 26k+ in my last build, and havent driven it for 10 months.
