Just wanted to comment to interested parties that this is a very strong
combination. I haven't gone through the SA bell housing details (mount
angle/clearance) but the engine itself is quite impressive. Drove one in an
automatic version and was really impressed with the amount of torque and mow
smoothly the turbo came on. I seriously considered this option years ago, but
never was able to hookup with a SA source for bell housing, mounts, starter
etc.


If I wasn't now on the gasoline track now, I would be sorely tempted.
