I was able to secure a b28(0?) yesterday, price was right (free). It is looking a bit rough and will probably need some work. Ignoring the typical problems that you hear about with these motors (cams crapping out, oil problems...) Am I nuts for attempting to put this in my 1981 242? I was really hoping that I could do like Audi does and slap a twin turbo setup on it. I did a rough cost estimate and by the time I get the car repainted and the whole nine yards I am looking at something in the realm of 4K to get this done. What do you all think??

Thanks!!

Andrew
