Re: crate motor question
you'll have to ask the j-body guys, but i don't think you're going to find anything like that.
your best bet is to find the motor you're looking for (you still haven't specified), drop it off at a machine shop, and tell them what you want. they'll tell you what pistons and rods and other hardware that will suit your needs and how much they'll cost. they'll even install the turbo kit for you so it's ready to go in your car.
you might want to do more research first on what exactly it is you want, and bust open your piggie bank.

Re: crate motor question
you gotta be kidding me. boosing a quad 4 is almost as retarded as boosting a honda.
wait....it is more retarded. those engines will pop a head gasket if you look at it crosseyed.
btw....a reman GM unit with a 3yr/100 k warranty is in the range of 2200-2600 for a long block.

in a crapalier? you ever worked on one? the 3.1/2.8 shitcans they had before the current four banger Z24's were a 60 degree engine, much less of a spread on the cylinders, so it could fit. a 3.8 is a wide ass bitch (i know its about 33" wide at the valve covers, if i recall. was gonna drop one in my old metro before junking it)
not saying it wont fit, but i doubt that dude has the knowledge/ability/motivation to do that if he is asking for engine (sorry...."motor"
) advice on Drag.
