I've been curious about this for a while ... does anyone know how easily (if
at all) this can be installed on a non-turbo 5000?  There's a nearby salvage
yard that has one of these they're willing to sell cheaply, along with the
intake and exhaust manifolds, etc.

I keep meaning to research this further but end up getting distracted by my
existing projects each weekend and most weeknights...
