I believe it's a physical limitation of the design that the smallest gearset that they can fit is 3.54's. It's been a long time since I've read into it.

Either an iron block thats turbo or an iron block thats stroked and that can handle the biggest NAWS spray I can get for it. either way a 80E trans is going in with either a 4200 stall or maybe a 4500 stall and a Moser 12 bolt with 4:10 gears or maybe 4:11 gears. Im kinda sure the Moser 12 bolt will handle the power Id like around 1k whp with turbo and as close to that on the bottle.

Depending on the route you go you'll want a completely different converter and rear gear. If you are planning on big power then stick with a 9" or s60 as the 12bolts are still a weak rear end in comparison. You don't want a 4200+ converter with a turbo setup and 4:11's would make that even worse. You wouldn't be able to hit full spool until you get into third unless you have small twins with a decent CI. An 80e would serve you well.

Thanks man!! yea turbos i know nothing about and Im still learning a lot of stuff. Id like it to still be street friendly because I saw a video on here how a guy drives his car to the track with a small trailer and i thought that was awesome so I wanna do the same. It will be mostly a track car for sure though.

The pistons ARE the drugs... a new procedure they have developed.

Yep, if you need any help or to point you in the right direction let me know. Many ways to skin that cat but all depends on your goals. When it comes to NA/Spray builds vs Turbo builds the components for a good optimized setup are the complete opposite. Gearing, stall, CI, CR, etc are all vastly different depending on the direction you go.
