If you have a turbo block, I might get it from you in a few weeks.

Those rotors are worth BANK...

Salvage as much parts are you can.&nbsp NA motors are worth more than turbo blcoks at this point..

Hey Sniper, if you don't want them, let me know, and I will take them. I can even pick them up.

Sniper_X,

you're not too far away... once you get 'em torn down, would you be willing to donate a busted housing and a busted rotor (if you've got one) to me? I'd get 'em (heck, and a set for you, if you wanted) powdercoated and make decorations out of 'em!

Brandon

P.S. If anyone has a crap rotor/housing pair in the SE that they'd let go for a song (I sing good), please let me know. I really want some cool bookends...

I have an end housing from an 87 gxl that has a chip off the coolant jacket missing. (causes the water jacket to blow). If you pay the shipping, it's yours.
