I have the opportunity to get this turbo with brand new internals for pretty cheap. I thought about using it for my 7.3, but it's simply too big to use for anything but drag racing. Do you think there is much of a market for a turbo like this, perhaps in some sort of custom application? How much do you think it is worth? I'm looking to possibly buy it and just put it on ebay.

Here's the details of the turbo: Garrett/AirResearch
Model Number: th08a64
Part Number: 5143110
Serial Number: ph0156
Description: Turbo for Detroit Diesel intercooled engine

You shouldn't have an issue finding a buyer for that turbo. although most pull and drag trucks are not Powerstrokes (unfortunately), there are always people building their trucks up. hopefully someone else will chime in on how much it would be worth.
