Turbo size for this setup

I have a good friend that is building a 1970 Cuda. He is putting a new LSX block in it with a Turbo. He is building a 454ci motor and he is wanting 1300rwh. We are trying to find out what turbo to run. It will have a 4L80E in it. It will be running by the Power Tour because he and I will be taking our cars for long haul. He was going to build a new Hemi for it but he was so impressed with my setup and how it runs and all that he is putting a LS1 in it. He is really going to **** some folks off lol.

I would think a 91 would be small for a 454. Go bigger on turbo or go down on engine size, it wont have any problem spooling it.

S95 will do the job and spool nicely on that size engine. The compressor wheel we use is a new style now.....wheel flows 168 lbs/min. The old wheel flowed 151 lbs/min....so the 95mm will do the job.

NO twins for now. Also if Jose would call my friend back he would have sold a turbo and other stuff by now. He called and left a message on his phone Tuesday. I wish Forced Induction would get there **** together. Makes you want to order somewhere else.
