Default Twin t76's

Would twin t76's be to much turbo for a lt1 383?? I'm looking for 800 hp. And maybe something capable of 1000hp later on. If not what turbos would be best??

The Lt1 with forged internals is a strong motor. Twin t76 on a good motor should make 800rwhp with ~12-14psi.

Might need a few more lbs of boost to do that. Even with better flowing heads of an ls1 you cant usually get to 800whp at 12-14lbs without some good aftermarket heads/intake.

+1 for bigger single. It would make things much easier. No need for twins, especially not 76mm twins if your looking for just 800-1000. You could even get that done with one mid frame 76mm
