If you go for those turbos (essentially identical to the JWT 700BB .64 a/r turbos I opted for), be sure you upgrade your injectors. 555's won't cut it. Headwork would be a major plus. This isn't a "cam" thread, but I was really sold on the improvement offered by the 500 cams. If you are spending the money to improve your heads, do some homework and ask people that have done the work. Seb's car was amazing off boost, I can tell you that.

Now, here is where I might get flamed. Money eventually ran out for me. Inconel manifolds are just too expensive. So, I have to wait (even though it costs me a truckload of $$$ to pull the motor). I want cast manifolds, but they aren't available yet. My stockers are as well ported as possible. This is a choke point for my build and I know it. However, I'll take a choke point over a potential liability anyday. SO, if you are choosing where to allot your $$$, spend it on things to protect your investment first at each stage. I'm doing injectors over manifolds for example.

I wish you a lot of luck. I can't wait until mine is done.

Greg. . .those pistons come in yet. . .???????
