My single frontmount build thread 98 Camaro, full bolt-ons, 12 bolt with 4.11 gears, was stalled auto but currently has no tranny lol. I got started last weekend
Turbo is a Turbonetics TC-76 (76mm compressor, 68mm exducer, .96 AR housing, 2.5 inch discharge flared out to a 3.5 inch vband, 4 inch inlet)
Im about to go change these^^^ mounts right now, i dont like them lol
these too (pic below), im making a new one that will have an integrated pull point for the car, i will also be able to jack up the front end of the car with it. currently i must use 2 jacks one on each side
^^^and when dudes say you dont need a huge garage to do this, their not bullshitting you, although it was a little tight before i took apart the front end LOL

lets see some pics of the turbo. sounds like the same measurements as my TC76. T4 Housing, 76mm compressor, F1-68X turbine wheel, 3" v band turbine outlet, 4" compressor inlet/2.5" outlet. the TC turbos use the 60 series housings which are the same size dimensionally but internal modifications. if it is a 60-1 turbo then i would HIGHLY suggest your not even consider using it. that thing would be great on a rear mount though. if you want a turbo that is roughly the same size but with more potential then a TC turbo would work great for you. i use a 76 but a 78 can be had as well.
