Reason: Sounded better
I don't know the specifics of your current fuel system but it doesn't sound like enough. I'd look into to the dual 450's or even better yet the 525's. I'm not a fan of comp turbos at all. My car had one on it when purchased and it was a turd, worse yet their customer service was horrible. Should still be a solid set up for you though and capable of 1200 + with proper fueling and IAT control.
Cool car. But then I like C5 coupes!
I think you will want the dual 450’s.
Dyno results will depend on the torque converter characteristics.
Irregardless, it will make big power!
Hope the diff lives. Most guys go straight to the bigger C6 diff.

man that’s the only thing I wish I could have squeezed in was the c6zo6 rear swap. Definitely gonna be in my future and see if I can get my glides main shaft swapped to a 30 spline as well.

ive been looking into a dual 450 in tank setup actually. This is some info on my current dual Holley and single in tank Racetronix 255 pump. States good for 1100 on the A&A dual and 5-600 on the in tank..don’t know how accurate that is or if that still is enough either.
Simple math, really rough estimate is over 1800 flywheel, IF you have enough turbo(s) to push 30lbs . I would expect something like a pair of 75/83(74mm exhaust exducer) borgs at a minimum for moving that much air without creating high iats.
Sounds like its gonna be a crazy ride . That 408 with those heads should make 600+NA with enough cam .
Solid foundation. Fuel pump is current limiter. Cam details? Expected peak rpm? Will lifters handle 8500rpm? Turbos likely next limiter. Lastly, injectors might be on edge at 1400rwp? With enough cool air and fuel (e85/meth) the motor looks like it should hold around 1600whp. Maybe less, with a non CCW crank (main bearings will tell the story).

on the phone right now trying to find some options on the fueling. Looks like Racetronix has a dual 340 in tank setup I can use with my existing A&A external it looks like..still waiting on a phone call back. RIS has a dual 450 setup but a 6 week wait possibly. And as far as injectors..I can’t float another 2k for some ID’s at the moment..but vs racing has some Bosch 200-210’s for like $600 if I’m reading it right. But yea looks like I’m only gonna be making what my current fuel system is gonna allow. And lifters I should be ok it’s got the caddy lifters and rpm not sure.
Taking the twin Holley dominators out the external which are only good for about 1100 I believe and replacing it with a Magnafuel pro star efi 750 “4703”. Gonna run around on the in tank 255 and have the Magnafuel come on at 4-5 lbs.
