Default F/MA turbo?

Don't get me wrong, I like my truck the way it is, but I wonder if 90hp is the true limit of its engine.

84 B2000, afaik the engine in there goes by F/MA. 2L I4, Nikki carb.

Anyone ever heard of someone doing this? Any idea what I could expect? Anyone intimately familiar here to tell me the engine can't take it?

To answer you last sentence

no never read or had anyone I know do this
without looking at the complete details of all the
parts name and other technical
information and required machine work no one Iam pretty sure can state the repeatable outcome?


As far as what any engine block can be reliable to hold x equals Horse power and Y = torque , you would need to build one and find out. But there are some safeguards that can be done to support the higher power output.

this is all about $$$$$$$
