whats my idea? junk. take that motor apart and look how tiny the rods are.

swap an LS and you will have the same power and torque of a d15 turbo, and they are safe for 300 hp ish on stock internals depending on how good your tuner is.

Well take this advice if ure only reason for keeping the d15 is laziness/cash If you really want the d15 for nostalgic reasons (which I doubt) build internals.
