maybe get one of those hybrid KKK's that are slightly better than std. seeing as your engine is near enough std

otherwise if you want say a T3 etc you will need a new exhaust manifold due to the fantastically gay GM one having the exhaust turbo housing as part of the manifold

If you genuinely want a newly reconned reliable turbo then you would be best advised to see what Turbo dynamics or Universal turbo's can offer.
You will get a warranty & an outlined spec whereas if we look out for one for you, it'll be a lottery.

^^^ agreed there. atleast a recon you will know its been done rather than taking someones word for it
