Hi Robert,

To add to Steve Buchholz' good advice, especially;

You might want to give Mosen Toosi at BMVW (outside Atlanta, GA, see ads in 
back of EC mag for his phone number) a call.  

The reason I suggest this is that I called him 2 or three years ago about 
swapping a 5000 turbo for the motor in my Syncro.  He was intrigued, and was 
willing to take the project on, estimating about 2-3K for the job at the time.

My pocketbook was subsequently overtaken by events, (li'l red pcar) so the 
syncro remains stock...

Cheers,
