Turbine side is 1.05
Compressor side is .66
Should have good spool time on my 8.4:1 346. Turbo is not to big, but not to small. This one of many turbos that my car will see. I am gonna run this one for all its worth and then toss on a T76. I am shooting for 550rwhp with this turbo and a Z06 cam/Intake and unported 6.0L heads.

I skimmed through the pic's and didn't see any, but has anyone figured out how to do a front-mount LS1 turbo that keeps the A/C and stock cooling fans but does not run any piping under the K-member? That's how mine is, but mine's on an LT1.

1.) How are you guys positioning the manifolds to keep the AC ect. and where is the turbo placed in the end?
2.) Hotside piping the same as the cold side size wise?
THANKS
