Turbo six on a Budget

forged pistons are just so expensive along with the machine shop fee, (if im going to get new pistons might as well have the cylinders bored)

Speed costs money. How fast do you wanna go?

I heated up a stock short block with a heavily milled head, big cam, 4 barrel and opend up exhaust manifold. Even on the next engine, with the ported head and big valves, I'm staying cast.....hyper, but cast. Were I to go turbo, there's no way I'd run a cast piston knowing what I know about slant sixes now.
