he ran an 88, depends on what oyu are wanting to do, power down low or up top. HP goals. Are you wanting to be able to hook at all on the street?

see havent decided yet, just tossing ideas around. i love big cams but for a DD it kinda sucks with such a large stall and the idling and etc. so i figured boosted would be nice for power and daily.

as for what i want out of it 10s if im boosted, as for n20 not sure either. i would like this setup to be more versital then i ahve now

you do realize that you'll need a 4l80e for this because i think i remember in some of you earlier posts that you didnt want to get away from a 65e

I am looking for the same thing right now. Some I have looked at are Garrett GT47, Precision pt-88, Turbonetics Y2K 80 or 88. Turbonetics being the only ball bearing.

well i was under the impression that the flt65e is the best 60e-based tranny you can get(i dont know what tranny you have) and ive seen (99% sure) vince post on here saying the they are reliable for up to 500fwhp and i would assume that you would have more power than that with a turbod 408

so i think you'll need either a 80e or a t56
