Need advice for turbo 4.8 fairmont budget build Picked up a 79 fairmont today and im wanting to do a turbo 4.8 build. i have the 4.8 and aje k member with ls mounts, need some suggestions on what turbo to run, was thinking about a on3 70 or 76 or a mp70 but have also seen people have good results with gt45s off ebay. hoping for 500-600 at the wheel. should i go with the ls6 cam? stock heads or find some 243s or? trying to do this fairly cheap so an $1000+ turbo is out of the question. plan on doing head studs but are rod bolts a good idea also? was planning on running truck intake but if it doesnt clear hood go with ls6 or? any advise will be helpful. hopfully get some pics up soon but will be gathering parts for a little bit.
