I would say they are both good for turbo, but obviously whatever one makes more power will have an advantage over the other.

A longblock is a complete block, with head, accessories, intake, all that ----, complete motor. A shortblock is a block with pistons and rods and ----, no head or intake or accessories.

then is it worth the extra money to just buy the one with the extra 10hp?
