So I found a 94 gt automatic with a 5s and the head gasket is Blown, my plans are to buy it and let it sit as a project and rebuild the engine and hopefully turbo the 5s before I put it back in the bay also I want to put a s54 or e153 to make it a manual conversion. Thoughts,warnings,opinions? Is 500 worth it if the block isn't cracked?....also idk if this is the correct place to post this.thanks guys!

500 for a roller is pretty good.

Headgasket? Lol dont count your chickens. There was a story that was real. I was rhe intermediate buyer of a car. Supposedly bad headgasket. Nope. Piston had melted and scored the block. Engine was trash. So until you open and remove the head on it. Ist not only headgasket. But 500 still good....
