a GT42-76, or a 76GTS.. PM me for good pricing 
I wouldn't put anything smaller on a 346... even though a 76 would MORE than suffice your 600 hp goal.. But with a 346 turning to 7000 rpm, you need a turbo with at least an "S" trim / GT42 hotside to keep power to redline.

I can det a gt42-96 for under a grand. i think it is too much turbo for the car and will not boost fast enough for what rpm range I want.
How much does a s400 go for or a tc76? Venders just pm me with prices.

...pardon me for being stupid, but who makes the TC76? TC76mps? I'm looking for something that can make 800ish (with some room to grow if needed). I'm have a built 347 with TH400 and am looking for a turbo that will get it done at the track and on the street.
Also, what is will this TC76 run $$ ? I am new to turbo V8...thanks for the help.
Any recommendations are appreciated.

You mean 3400 lbs Cutlass with a built SBC 406 with transbrake, big convertor and the turbo was done. That is all great for a full blown race car....hehe. 99% of the people on here and most boards are building street cars and the other units will outspool it by a long shot and get you those times as well. No reason to cut yourself short to save a few bucks and ultimately be unhappy and end up swapping everything out later down the road for more added costs.
He went to the 80mm setup and is going much faster now.
All of you whining about slow spool, quit being pussies and just hit it with a 75 shot to speed the process up a bit.
