With a 396 stroker that is a small turbo. Personally I would look at something like a pt88 for those cubes.

IMO, any t4 frame is going to have excessive back pressure on a 396

I did get ahold of jose (forced inductions) well my proturbo kit is a t4 so he suggested the PT88 or the GT88 I know I need a large ar maybe at least 1.15 but not sure waiting on his input he has great prices and warranties too I'm trying to figure what's best out of these two
