Close to engine/turbo time Looks like I might have time to build my personal car.Still thinking of engine size and Turbo size. Car is a 00 Z(4k miles) with a 25.5 cage,mini tubs,wheelie bars ,parachute, all the bells and whistles. Will be running a powerglide too.Car will be street driven which will have a small(efficient) intercooler and a serious Meth system for the track.
here are the idea's.
370ci iron with 91,5mm turbo
408ciiron with 96mm turbo
370ci with twins -probly 70's.
What do you guy's think? I keep going back/forth on the combo

Now we get some answers
I'm pointing towards the 408ci ,91+mm turbo thing. The way I figure it the first motor will be a throw away.I will push it till it grenades.Then go from there.The car will be legal to 7.5's.I plan on working down the ladder.
As for $$. cheaper the better of course just as long as it isn't dangerous.I'll put the car together and do the turbo kit.
This will also be a street car to an extent.There is no way I'm dumping a ton of $$ into a car and not drive it

YUMMY!I like where ya started with your post......
Don, id love to see what you can do with some L92 stuff since a 4.03" bore is needed...... Iron block.... Buy the heads and the intake TB for $1500 from GMPP and add double springs and show people what that can do at the same time.....
Stock PCM with 3 bar??? or BS3??
I like the Glide with a 9" and 3.50 gear and what ever tire u decide.......
