It'll take plenty of power. Do a compression check/leakdown test and confirm the health of the engine. You're going to have to install headstuds and I'd recommend a golden eagle(oem) headgasket then the turbo kit is all you have to worry about.

Its also a good idea to replace the oil pump before you boost it. I'd probably keep that engine under 300whp or 10psi whichever comes first. You could be anywhere from 250-300whp depending on what cams you go with and what turbo manifold/turbo setup. Good luck
