Default 6.0 turbo or 402?

Debating whether to build a NA 402 with about 10.5 to 1 compresion or a stock LQ4 with front mount turbo @ 9#'s of boost.
What should I do?
What would make more hp?
If I go with the 402, how well would the stock 317 heads work?

A stock, turboed 6l would make more power and be more drive able then a head and cammed 402

Turbo 6.0L now


402 in 6 months



If you decide on the STS (which I recommend) make sure Brian gets you a GT67 upgrade with a .96 A/R on the turbine. Full boost by 3000rpm and just hold on from there.
