My Regal...

[MR. BIRD]

I don't know, but is my Regal somehow sacreligious to the Turbo thing?

It's a 1978 Sport Coupe, with a 231 4-barrel turbo factory, but I put a 1972 AMC/Jeep 225 cube NA motor, with 2-barrel Rochester, T-5 trans from a Mustang and console from my deceased 1983 Honda Accord.

I am wondering if it is worth it to make it a turbo again? It was used as a parts car for a GN project, and that took the engine and trans.

Does anybody know if i can convert my 225 to turbo?

From what I've read, the 231 factory turbo will bolt to the earlier V6's. V-6 Performance by Pat Ganahl is a great book for both the 231 and pre-231 motors.


But with 231/252's being so plentiful and cheap, I would swap back. Get a '79 or later motor. Better heads, even firing and no question about interchange.
