Just bought a 04 gtp with a blown engine knocking doesn't sound to consistent with lower end. Could I just use a l26 lower end for it be good? Or find a charged engine to replace? There are tons of n/a engines on Craig's around here for good prices.

im pretty sure i saw the same listing and was going to call about that today. ha ha. what color is the car? it didn't say. they wanted 1900.
02-04-2013
Yup that's the one... It's white
02-04-2013
cool man. good luck.
02-04-2013
Thanks it's a very straight car but very dirty will need some serious clean up.

If you put a NA bottem end in you need to do other supporting mods to run the high comp block.
Its better to find a L67 or L32 bottem end and make it a straight swap with no hassles.
02-05-2013
Like what supporting mods? Headers? Tune? Intake? Colder plugs and tstat Which are all items I plan on running anyway
02-05-2013
Headers and a tune mainly. Colder plugs and tstat arent needed if kept on the stock. But just know the NA L26 is not the best block for boost and you may need a 4.0 pulley to run it like a 3.8 on a L32 block.

A l67 will work in a 04?
02-05-2013
I don't plan on running stock it's going to get modded well
02-05-2013
Yeah, just swap brackets and top end over and thats it.
02-05-2013
That will b the plan then there are a few l67 around here for sale ill snag one of those
02-05-2013
I bought the 04 in my sig with a blown motor and stuck an L26 in it. You'll more than likely need to do some mods to accommodate for the higher compression block. Or, find yourself a L67 or L32.
Or, the best option of all......sell the car to me.
02-05-2013
Yea that might be the route to go they are proud of the l36..
Oh no it will be my keeper
