Nice. At UTI where i go to school they got a 302 with a lil over 560 to the wheels in a foxbody. Its made literally made hundreds of dyno runs with nitrous in the few years since they've built it and its never blown. Of course i'd imagine its upgraded internals, but still its pretty badass car

exactly, it would be a hard time trying to build boost on a single turbo v8 while i'm climbing a rock the size of the truck, lol. i need high torque at low rpms.
the turbo I have sitting on the shelf came out of a redline 2500rpm motor, 7-10psi at 1600rpm is what it puts out.

and my 2012 SHO twin turbo puts out 365 hp to all 4 wheels. thats my go fast car, lol

FRPP Boss block 347. You need gobbs of power to make one of these heavy trucks go fast. That would do it. If you could put any engine you want in, why would you want a towing motor?....thats pretty sedate and boring.
