Default what size housings for a tt 427?

ok so im set on getting a pair of gt35r turbos externally wastegated now just need to decide on housing size. seeing as i will be running this on a 427, would i still be able to effectively and efficiently run these with a .63 ar housing? or would i be better off with a .82 or even 1.06? my goals are to spool at 3500-3800 and to hit the 1000rwhp mark

Ummm just a stupid question here.... but what kind of 427? Just a warning from all I have read... maybe some of the more experienced builder will chime in... but 427's dont have enough piston wall to safely run boost. Unless your gonna go with the world or LSx block...

But I am no expert... just an internet racer.

I will be interested to see how well those 35Rs do. I went with GT42Rs for my setup and still can't wait to see what she does.

Either way its going to be an animal! Good Luck man.
