Why don't you get a STS universal? Does the 73 have a transverse muffler?

Muffler? The only muffler it has had is two 3.5 inch bullet mufflers. Besides an sts kit will not meet my hp goal of 800rwhp. Right now its looking like i will be getting a pte t88. and doing something kinda this this https://ls1tech.com/forums/forced-induction/276982-pics-jay-s-94-camaro-sbc-turbo-buildup.html

Here are pictures of the PTK system without the coating when being built.

We offer a non-intercooled version with a MP-T70 fully coated for $4499

I am in the process of this right now. Mine is a 73 Camaro as well. I'm waiting on the front end from Wayne Due (setting the motor plate on it as well), Motor from APE and heads from AFR. Once I get all this Phamspeed is helping me with the turbo set up.

Wayne is sending the suspension driectly to Phamspeed.
Phamspeed will be placing a motor in the plates and on the suspension making the headers for me. Then shipping the suspension and headers to me.

I'll be putting the whole front suspension and sheet metal on the car. At that point I can measure for the FMIC and take a bunch of pictures and meassurements for Phamspeed.

From that point they will be making the FMIC and tack welding exhaust / intake pipes for me. If they fit properly then I will send them back so they can finish tig welding them for me. If they don't fit right, I'll take pictures and measurements of the issues for them to fix.

You can follow my build by clicking the "Super 73" in my sig.

When he has all that room in the engine bay why limit yourself to a mediocre system?

The PTK kit is nice, but 4500 without a cooler is just lunacy IMHO. There's lots of great fabricators all around the country, where are you from? Rustys Total Performance in Tucson does fantastic work, he will have the car from a car in his shop with no exhaust to a single or twins, all ceramic coated, in 2 weeks. Only problem is he doesn't do off the shelf stuff.

Heck our LT1 Non intercooled system is $3999 with a T70 as well. You can fit up to a 76GTS with our system and you won't get the lag of a rear mount.

The STS Universal kit would be about $3,000, but you would need to fabricate the pipes.

The universal includes turbo, oil system, wiring harnesses, pressure switches, manual, essentially everything except for the pipes that will need to be fabricated for that specific chassis.
