2nd try? On the cheap friendly comp?

I just recently finished my workshop and I've finally started tearing into my dart. So I guess I might as well take part. I'm doing a more all-over resto-mod but my budget is very very tight, so perfect.

So.. Should we each make a thread showing progress and costs as we go? Perhaps link it here? Should we just post our results here?

Timetable? How about this year? We'll call it our New year's resolution!

And one gripe:

Turbo's and Blowers are cheap? Good, get me one if you use one or don't bother posting in the go fast cheap thread. Theres no such thing as a cheap turbo or blower. If you point to e-gag for the cheap turbos there, I disagree on them actually being a real turbo.

Blowers and turbo's are out.

Say that to a pair of junkyard truck turbos for $60/piece Sitting on a shelf in my shop. I've yet to decide whether to put the car together N/A and turbo it later, or do the junkyard turbo thing from the get-go, but either way, I've a mind to build an engine with mostly stock internals and a smidge of boost as opposed to going into heads cam and bottom end stuff. I'd like to know that if I go turbo I'm not going to be shunned from the competition. Believe me, if I can't keep it cheap, the turbo aint happening.
