l67 shortblock a good start for high boost application?

[ravenp]

I have found an l67 shortblock with 100000miles on it for $250CAD(about 180US)....

Is that too high miles for the money? Would it give me a good start for building a high boost turbo application? (15-18psi?)

Are the L67 cranks stronger than ours?

thanks

L67 cranks are the same as L36 cranks. The blocks are also the same. The rods and pistons are stronger.

So basically i'd be buying pistons and rods for that... the rest is the same as mine, but higher mileage..

Okay cool thanks.

I've got L67 rods/pistons for sale if you want them. Make me an offer if interested.

Its not worth buying the whole block, you can buy the pistons and rods for around 600$ Get L32 rods

But doesn't the l67 have the injectors in a different location which would better suit an FI car?

$600 is a LOT more than $180 no?
Could I build up the block to swap into my car? or just strip the good parts out for mine?

They are located on the heads.

L67 injectors are located in the heads. It's not a better location, just the only place they could put them because the blower took up to much intake space.
