I am tipping back and forth i am going 871 with injector hat/i am going to look at the cost of ls vs small block. I am in the middle of buying a building which is eating my money so the motor had to be some what cost effective. I dont want to go over kill. This is the reason I am not going twin turbo. Also no one knows you have the turbos but they can hear the grass roots
