    Car started, died, won't start now...

    The wires at the CPS connector are shorting out...had the same problem on my old motor. The insulation was old/cracked, exposing the wire. I did a splice/re-wire for each wire and it fixed it. And yes, it can (and did) die at stop lights. :3d_frown:

    na motor w/ turbo electronics? help

    The NA and turbo blocks are almost the same...the NA has higher compression piston...the turbo has oil sqirters for the pistons to help keep it cool. The heads are the same, except for the cams...all the cams will do is shift your power band higher. If you are going to swap out all the turbo...

    how hard is it to change the fan blade?

    Really easy to replace...the bottom part of the shroud can be removed, only 2 clips hold it on. Do you need a fan?
