cold, i talked to a friends dad who built 3 different engines for his 69 z28, he said he would love to help me out and help me build if i just get the stuff and a fsm. i want to get around 350ft/lbs so im thinking a t3/t04e .68a/r from sheapturbos.com will do it and the mani from etdracing. i have alot of stuff just sitting around also, but not sure what an fm is? also should i use 550 or 720 injectors, i know its a vauge ? but for tuning all i have now if a safc and was gonna do jwt ecu. like i said im still searching and trying to figure out for sure what i want and need for the #'s i want vs. $$$$

fm=front mount. the reason why i said check into spindler is he has all the equipment to build heads and bottom ens properly. from what i have seen 550 should be fine, if you wanted to you could run the 720s and just tune it, it will save money in the long run too. the figureing out the #'s vs. $$$$ thing i cant help you there im bad at that. also i tried looking for sheapturbos.com......no luck finding them.............
