Default HX52 turbo

I was looking at the HX52 turbo and i can get one from a buddy for cheap! and i was wondering how that would do on a stock cube ls1 w/ some 317's and a truck manifold setup?
any suggestions about anything else would be helpful
thanks

HX52 is about the size of a t70 so it could work.... but find out what size it actually is before you go and buy somthing that is too small

that depends on what you are looking for... max power, fast spool, powerband etc... are you keeping the 233/239 .598/.603 cam... and what is the LS?? if you are keeping the 3500 stall then you can go rather large and still have full boost when you mash the throttle....

id go larger than 1.1 but oppinions on turbo are like ******** :-)
