That's nice. I've contemplated building a turbo kit...just because lol.
Good to see it's possible. Is the cross over pipe below the k member bottom plate/oil pan? What size pipe did you use for the cross over?
Don't worry I'm not stealing ideas to market my own LOL I'd just like to see what's possible in the event I want to tackle something like this.

Like shownomercy said, usually it is the motor combo that is the restriction. If you want a street setup with factory k, the 3" DP that you normally used with a 7675 will max out around 850-900rwhp with a manual (less with an auto). The restriction in that setup is a single 3" DP with 75mm turbine wheel. If you have the motor for more, and can run a bigger DP with tubular k or fender dump, sky is the limit.
I have done some bigger builds, one grudge car is in the 1200rwhp range (big single with exhaust dump for downpipe.
I typically do street setups since most LT1 owners don't spend big money on serious motors.

If I was to build a setup, I would do it for more low end spool capability. I like to autocross and with everything in the 1st/2nd gear and maxing out at about 50mph (considered a fast course locally) it would be good to have the boost come on relatively quick.

800rwhp is achievable at ~20psi... a 7675 turbo would probably push 40psi with gate closed...
from experience I gained 114rwhp at “the same 16psi” by changing 3 things (703rwhp @ 16psi vs 817rwhp @ 16psi):
1) wastegate dump to atmosphere to drop back pressure
2) cutouts to drop back pressure
3) ditched intake tubing and filter for a screen to eliminate intake restrictions
