I have one in Sydney. Stock $50 no carby (still has both standard manifolds), extra if you want carby (modded by Sams performance), Extractors or Clutch (standard). I also have a custom Head gasket which should be suitable for a turbo motor (I will find out by tomorrow afternoon if you are interested).

The engine was running up until a couple of months ago when I took it out of my car, but it is standard. The carby is a modified Nikki. If you need to know what it needs for a turbo ask in the general forum.
