i really appriceate all the info and help! There sure is a lot to think about and decide on.

dave, if i ran something simular to what you are saying would that put me around 500? and in you oppinion thats all you would do?

also any suggestions on sites for some of these parts?

thanks again for the help

If done right you will be north of 500 at the wheels with that s366, and yes thats all I did and would do again

turbo I would get here ... its basically a silver bullet 66 but with a t4 housing instead of a t3. I will say its not the 71 turbine that would be best but this one will work just fine

should i look around for a 71 or you think that turbo is the way to go?

also not really to familure with the coolant bypass.. should i figure out how to build it or buy it?

That one will do just fine, for timing that depends on your injector choice
