But it is a project. Key issue I suspect is cooling—engine and turbo both. Heater core, A/C, etc. are farther down the list.
I think it's real viable with a worst case scenario going back to a stockish NA four-cam EJ25 at 200-ish hp.
Or a monster Type 4.
Or a built NA Sube such as this.

If I had it, I'd swap the Suby with Jimmy V. for his huge type 4 and call it a day.
Bam!
I believe the owner addressed the cooling question in the comments section. Says it's never been over 210. You'll remember Jim was chasing demons in his cooling system right up until he found a piece of equipment stuck in one of the tubes Beverly restricting flow. Since he removed the foreign object he hasn't had any cooling issues I believe.
