    I have my doubts but son changed many rear ends, trannys, tires, and other parts over the years. Something was wearing and tearing them out.
    I've seen some of the race bikes they run and they are unbelievable with a turbo and nitros.
    I thought a 327 with 300 HP was amazing. I was never at those tracks so don't know.

    Welcome, that's a bad Malibu. Is it one of the Ebay imported turbos? How many miles do you have on the turbo? Is the engine stock? I have a 5.3L in one of my Eagles and wouldn't mind a little more oomph.
