86 svo block....

there is a guy i know in san marcos, that owns a 93 5speed, with an 86 svo block in it. he said he blew the bearing in the turbo, so he stuck the cast iron exhaust manifold on the block, then ran a stock intake on it, and he says he pulls mid 15's n/a....i havent quite had the chance to race him yet, but i wonder if thats possible to do that on the turbo internals from an 86 svo engine...

i have seen the engine though, and it is a 4cyl engine, that looks like a 91-93 engine, but i dont know what an svo block even looks like, and it doesnt have any nitrous hooked up to it either.

any opinions if this is a load of crap or what?

he said he has 2 kids and a wife, so cant afford the turbo replacement...but what all would he have to have done to run 15's on a turbo block? im curious, and without nitrous

hmmm, ok coo, thanks alot, i'll call him out in a 25 rolling start with my 2.3 na, i've got some decent times myself on it, so if its a mid 15's i'll know it
