Default 370 W/S475 Getting started

Well we finally started pulling stuff of the 5.3 to make room for the new motor.Got my circle d 4c restalled to a 2c and my turbo cam came in from a member on here, took out my 410's and put the 342's back in there.bought some 317's with 918's on them from a member here.now im just waiting on my 370 short block which should be done this week, and Kb said he was gonna get started on my front mount turbo kit with a borg warner S475 so the plan is to have the motor put in ready to go for the kit to be put on.

Things i need to buy:
60lb+ injectors
boostcontroller (ams-500 or ebooost)
boost gauge
another walbro
and hopefully a cage

I bet! I've seen all your videos and the turbo sounds tottally different from other turbos I have herd and it was between the s475 or mp76 and I don't think that little turbo will keep up with what I'm gonna throw at it!

The reason I want the flipped kit is valvetrain noise. I don't want the tinny, ticking sound associated with thin header walls. Plus the manifolds should be cheaper.
