I did just that, you will need larger radiators and the larger squirrel cages, also if you are using the 740 Tran, you will have to shorten the drive shaft 1" I also changed the tork convertor. You will have to move the Tranm. mounts 1" and you also will need a different front mount unless the eng. you are using came out of another MCI and has the mounts with it. The Muffler should be changed to 5" in and 5" out. This is a lot of work, but what a difference. I think if I was to do it over Iwould consider Turbo the 8v71, but there is things you have to do just not add a turbo, but all the other things I think you could get by with what you have.
