You would probably need 60lb - 65lb inj, 83lb might be too big.

83's are never too big, but they are low impedance, and that means you need a converter box....

75lbs are the highest high impedance out there right now, I will probably use these if my 60's don't carry me to where I need to be, I'm sure I'll make it though.....

I think 60s can get you to 750RWHP. After that, you need to go low imp or pay the big bucks for custom high imp.

hmm do you think a T70 will support your 20psi?
unless you have some corked exhaust i dont think youll get there.

Rob R was only able to get around 15 psi before he ran out of turbo on his T76

i think the T70 will be able to supprt around 650rwhp, so 55's sould be plenty.

On a 370 I would at LEAST do a t-76 with a big housing, if I was going turbo I would for sure stuff an 88 in there though

Depends which 70 it is. Their is a new 70 out which is making 850rwhp on a TH400 in a GN . If its a 70 p-trim....then no, boost will fall off. A 370 at 6500 rpms will require ~90 lbs/min, at that PR you will be past the choke line on a T70. The turbo will work ok in the lower boost levels.
