The green Vega has a 2007 L92 based stroker motor. Callies crank, Howards rods, JE pistons 416 CID. I has a CSU carb blow-through E85 carb. I have more $ in that engine then the entire purchase price of the purple Vega.
What I think I'm going to do is put that motor in the Purple one and run it NA next year and slowly move it to turbo blow through setup. The green will probably get some interior put back in it and maybe the 350 that is in the purple one now and I'll either sell it or keep it around, not sure yet.
Now back to the thread. If I put the motor from the Green Vega in the purple one I will shave 100 more pounds off it for a total of 2600 with me in it!
