Ya I was j/w if anyone knew what rpm it would actually spool at. I know its not going to be streetable. My main question is what c.i. motor I would have to have to spool like 15 psi or so by like 3500- 4000

Run it in a compound setup. Put the big turbo in the rear, put a 60mm in the front w/ truck manifolds.

Turn it into an extremely large turbine jet engine.

you can make it fit. just do it intelligently and simply as you can. it may not work well with the 347 but you can use it until you get the funds for a 408 and make some serious power with it!! if you have concerns about spooling you can always increase compression and go E85 to battle knock.

My rearmount S380 (T4 1.25 a/r) with the quick spool valve spools so fast in cool weather I have to be careful getting on it. Cool weather in Vegas 60 degrees is about what summer is like for people around sea level. Even in summer with our 115 heat and 7000+ DA it still spools reasonably well and is fun on the street.

Personally I'd get rid of that turbo and go for one which is known to work like an S380/S480. A 1.10 T6 S480 shouldn't spool that bad on a 346. Spend an extra $500 for a SP quickspool valve and the car will be a rocket.
