The turbo's support 900+ each, so the efficiency range (considering both) will be perfect for the power I want to make. I'm looking for 700-800 on pump and maybe 900-1000 on race gas.

Either way the truck is going to stay street oriented, I am putting a cage in it for the sake of protection from anything. I'm not going to cut up the rear-end and tub it out or anything. It is going to be a modest looking street truck with a lot of power on tap.

Although 9's will be nice, high 10's will be most anything around here... now when I got to Tx2k13, I will be on kill mode for the entire event.

I'll be updating this periodically.

I'm not sure what it weighs right now, if i had to guess something completely random... i'd imagine somewhere in the neighborhood of 3klbs. Someone can correct me if im wrong.

Couple of things that are ordered and are in route:
10 point cage
4l80e trans.
Callies DragonSlayer Crankshaft.
