Default advice on turbos

I have a 408 iron block with good internals low compression with ported 6.0 heads. I just got my stainless steel headers for my twin turbo set up i just need to decide what turbos to go with. I did loss my a/c cause of the headers. Its not really gonnna be a street car. me having CDL i will race it at the track when called out and the money is right. I wanna run at least mid 9's if not faster stock looking form. I was thinking of T66's or would that be too much. Oh yeah i will have a transbrake too. So tell me what you all think i need to run those time. 800+ my goal. what do you think about 62-1's or master power turbo t61's i think.

Thanks fellow members

sounds similar to hat your goals are. similar turbos to what you probably need(maybe a bigger AR though since you have a 408)
some T61's or T62s should do
