Where is a 7-second street car? I sold my 8 second car and now i'd like to find a 7-sec turbo car already built that is slightly streetable.
So maybe I'm not supposed to ask this question on the forum... but I want know if there are other forums or websites y'all would recommend that may have slightly more radical than normal builds for sale. Only ones I really know of besides LS1tech are YB and racingjunk.
Can you give me some other suggestions?

They don't grow on trees down there?
Only see outlaw style cars(drag only) in the 7's for sale. Guy who builds a 7 sec street car has so much money into it or he has owned the car since high school. He would loose his *** if he sold it money/time wise. Or is too attached to it, it will never see a classified section. Sold only by word of mouth.
FB is great but it's not the end all. If you look hard enough and talk to people you will find anything.
I have been on the hunt for a big block 62-65 nova. I have found more leads by calling shops in the US and asking the owners if they know of anyone selling.

Not a turbo motor, but still. You could build your own or buy his BBC setup.

It would seem like the easiest and possibly cheapest way to do it would be to buy a roller with a good rear, suspension, and safety already setup to run those times legally then put your own fresh motor combo in it.

Thanks for the input guys, I'll see if I can find some good groups on Facebook. Yeah, I thought about finding a solid roller and doing my own seven second car, but I just don't have enough spare time to do a build.
And I tried your racing junk links, but they wouldn't open for me. I search that site about once a week so I'll probably come across whatever it is you posted
