You should really go with a complete TII motor, but you'll need the TII rear and transmission to handle the extra power. If you want to use the TII ECU then you'll need the harness and sensors as well.

I see complete 89-91 motor for about $1000. http://www.corksport.com and http://www.fc3s.org sell them.

I got my motor and tranny from www.fc3s.org



It will cost you more then just the motor and tranny though. You should look at spending at least 2000 to do the transplant. You'll need the ECU, wire harness, driveshaft, rear end, bigger fuel pump, and most of the time the Top mount ICs don't make it over seas undamaged.

If you're planning on putting a turbo on your NA, the first thing you should go buy is a Haltech.
