i think a few of you saw my cressida suspension question thread....well here's another advice thread

ok so yesterday i picked up a free toyota 2jz-ge motor from a friend , blown head gasket and missing a few parts..... what would be the grassroots thing to do?

rebuild, keep n/a 5spd , or turbo from the get go? i know the turbo (gte) or non turbo(ge)share the same block,piston,rods, but the gte has the oil squirters , and the ge has a distibuitor ignition...

since it needs a headgasket anyway, i will probably do a mls gasket and possibly arp hardware, i still have to tear down and look the motor over ...

suggestions?
