I bought my '92 Alltrac a little over a month ago. The motor was done for.. it had been driven around for a while on a blown head gasket, and then it sat for several months.. so lots of rust on the engine. Needless to say, I picked it up for a great price. I've been working on rebuilding the motor over the past month. I'll start first with what I started with.. and end with where I'm at now.

OMFG....good job...work looks excellant..maybe wouldnt have chosen Eagle rods as there`s better available but fantastic work non the less. 11 out of 10 for work.

P.S. shoot who ever welded the exhaust manifold now, and put them out of our missery :)

Yeah, well I can't complain.. I got the whole kit (tubular manifold, 20G turbo, external wastegate, and downpipe) for $300.. :)

wow, pretty damn awsome! How long did it take you to do all that?

I've had the car for 5 weeks. Worked on it in my spare time.. I'm a full time student and I work full time. Also had the help of a couple of close friends.

looks damn good man. that old engine was dirty as hell, lol. caint wait till you get her in the car and run it at the track. how much power are you expecting from this setup?

Right now, low-mid 200hp area with stock-10psi. I still need to do a front mount intercooler conversion, 850cc injectors, fuel rail, fuel pressure regulator, and an engine management system.. then I'll crank the boost up to 25+psi.. and make mid 300's to 400hp.

^water/alcohol inject and a bigger turbo is what you need :)

nice motor man i just did a jdm swap on my trac cuz it had a blown head gasket, my old motor was as bad as yours and i thought there was no hope for it but good job. also were did you get that red top and what kind of turbo is that?

The top must be self painted. Whats really impressive is that vip got the 20G turbo/wastegate/downpipe/manifold kit only for 300 bucks... was the downpipe custom made to fit or not? I want to see the intercooler piping in the making...thats the most fun part. kudooos.

so u gonna daily drive the 7th gen now. finally realized the superiority of the 5th gens. :) lol j/k.

Yeah, I did the valve cover myself. Cleaned with lots of degreaser lol.. polished it with several wheels on a grinder. Masked off the places that I wanted to have the "polished" look.. then painted with the same stuff i painted the block with.

what paint did you use?

hey was there a web site that you got that turbo kit from?. i was going to get a gt30 but that looks rilly good!!!

Go with the GT30 if you have the cash for it. I picked this up local from someone that got even a better deal then me on it. It's a long story, but he bought the kit from someone for $50, and it's been sitting around his house for like 8 months bc he couldn't find anyone to buy it (he didn't need it, he drives a mk4 supra) and finally I came along.. he said he just wanted enough money to buy a wideband a/f meter. So I gave him 300 for it :)

what paint did you use?

I got the paint form Auto Zone.. it's called "Ford Red".. I think duplicolor makes it, not exactly sure. It's the 500 degree engine paint.

ah duplicolor, coo thanks

hey vip how much did you pay for your all-trac?
