Default TC76 L33 Datsun 510

I have a 1972 Datsun 510 that I swapped a L33 V8 a while ago and decided the car needed some attention to the paint which was about 10+ year old so I stripped down the car and got started. I decided I wanted at least 500 rwhp (actually 510 rwhp) to go with the whole 510 thing so I knew the only way to get that is to go turbo. I plan to go with the LS6 cam/lifters, 60lb injectors with a Walbro external 255lph and possibly meth as well. The turbo I have chosen is a Turbonetics TC76 with .96ar which should get me there. For the wastegate I am leaning towards the Precision 46mm unit and no idea for the BOV yet. I will add pics as I go

The 510 is a favorite of mine and I can't imagine a better way to build one, sweet!
