GroundZero's twin turbo project car in the making
Here's a little something we've been working on. We're going to be using twin GT35R's T3 based w/ .82 AR for lots of street fun Block will be stroked out 400+ci. We're looking to get about 1000hp and keep it all streetable. As you can see, coils will all be relocated. This car will see some track time but will mostly be a street car and maybe a parts run car I'll post up progress when we have any. We have 3 other project/race cars to finish up by summer, I'll make sure I post up pics of those as well

Sorry to bring this up again incase it was scratched from GZM's palate. Honestly, i think there are going to be some issues with valve covers and the 400+ CI with a T3 flange. I have .5" spacers on my covers and i don't see anyway those would fit or, if they were able to get on there somehow, i don't see being able to tighten them down. My suggestion for GZM is to use real heads, valve covers, spark plugs, wires, etc in order to see if everything does indeed fit. Stock heads are cheap (hell i had to give away a set of stockers just to get them out of my sight) and it would prove to the LS1tech community that you have worked through SOME of the snags that may occur.
I am not an expert on cars or FI by any means, BUT, the general consensus on the forum is to use the smaller cubes for the higher peak power and the bigger cubes for the higher torque. I don't know why you would want to make a street kit that is capable of handling atleast T4's but you choose to use T3's.
If my points are way off base i am sorry because i am trying to learn rather than teach you a lesson.

Just how fast are those things gonna spool behind a 400+cid motor ???...I'm looking at doing a twin-turbo setup with twin T3/T04E .57 trim Turbos and I've been warned against the T3 housings because I'm told I'll be looking at 3.50+ pressure ratios due to the displacement of the cylinder banks being ALOT bigger that what a T3 is designed for....any insight ???
