I can get cheap 500's as they are in a junkyard which my father and I do frequent business with. Is there any way I can rebuild my whole 320 motor to take boost?
Your 320 engine can already take boost (5-7 Lbs maybe more) . I have already posted a link to all the parts you need to turbo your car. If you can wire and program an AEM this would be your least expensive option. If I were you I would make a list of your various options, and for each option make a parts list and estimates for the work you cannot do and will have to farm out. For each option estimate the performance (no ricer math!) and total cost. I would use a separate sheet of paper for each option. do your research and make sure you aren't forgetting something. Then after you have figured out everything for each option add $500 for the unknown many trips to the parts store. Thiink about resale value, performance goals, future mods and additonal potential and realiability. If you do all this you will know which direction to go and will stick with it.
