Default new twin turbo project

I am picking up a 1994 Z28 roller with a cowl hood. I will post up pics of it this weekend. I am going with a built manual reverse vlv body th400, ford 9", dart little M block (406) with the wrench rat twin turbo setup (twin 62 turbonetics turbos). The turbo kit will be here next week, I have my 4 link/back half kit with QA1's, rims and tires will be mounted tomorrow, drag lites 15X15's, mickey thompson 29X18's. I am ordering the AFR 227 heads and intake manifold next paycheck, then on to the short block. I need to figure out the converter and rearend gears. Should be a scary fun project.

Well I got the camaro for 500$ and a hand gun. I will post pics of it after I take some. I measured under the hood and the twin turbo kit that I got will not fit in there as is so I am going with a tube chassis and a 12 point cage in it, I am prolly going with the setup from auto weld chassis that is were I got the back half kit from. Turbo kit should be here by thursday. woo hoo.

I am going with a 1st gen 350 (kind of) it will be a dart little m block. So if a mod wants to move this to the sbc section, much appreciated.
