I was think about a S 480 with 1.32 AR. The car will certain to 7.50 and has a 16x33 tire. I want to drive it on the street 50/50. Has a T400. What gear do you recommend? Will be building a bigger motor after the learning curve.

Thanks for the input. The car should be about 3300 lbs all steel with 3/4 chromoly chassis.

Thanks for the input. The car should be about 3300 lbs all steel with 3/4 chromoly chassis. weight does not hurt nearly as much as N/ A compared to a turbo combo. In many cases it causes the turbo to work harder faster and aids in building boost.Andy Jensen's outlaw Corvette used a low first gear but shifted into second by the 60' mark.It was done to trick the turbo into thing it had more weight to pull. it built the boost super quick but by then it was already in second gear and flying . Your car might need higher low gear to save blowing the tires away or standing the car up on launches. home of the Sox and Martin Hemi Duster

Now does any body have pictures of a turbo BB in a stock early B body engine compartment without cutting out the wheel wells.

Cutting the car up is not the issue. The car will never be restored back to stock. With me wanting to drive it on the street and keeping the motor clean is the issue.
