after doing a lot of online chasing around I found the engine model and turbo part number, I'm gona give them a call later today and get a price.

I guess this turbo also has ports for water cooling.

$1400 from the Briggs price list....I guess they put a similar one one the Suzukis and Chevy Sprints back in the early 90's, this is an upgrade for those.
