    7mgte with na ecu.

    Main issue would be the NA ECU has no way of knowing about boost. So it can't pull the timing back when the motor is + Boost. It becomes a compromise in that you need enough timing to make it drive nice off boost but not too much so it detonates when on boost......

    I'd bolt a head back on and if you don't want to pull the motor and tans as a unit put a floor jack under the trans unbolt it from the Engine then start the shuffle wiggle hoist fest until it comes loose. I've done it mutiple times both ways and as a unit it's so much easier.

    Turbo ???

    500 on a stock Manifold is going to be difficult unless you have it Power Ported (Extrude Honed) The Boss Malloy just bought should be capable of 500 easily check his thread.

    Crankshaft

    I have both here and used the 7M crank for my new motor as I believe long term it will be kinder to the Main bearings as it should be less prone to Crank Whip at high engine speeds/loads. Top 7M crank Bottom 6M
