5.3 turbo

[66chev]

I want to install a turbo on my 5.3 that i am putting in my 64 nova wagon. Is there anyone that has any suggestions on

companies to go with?

Holley is coming out with a really neat, cast turbo log.

I like Borg Warner turbos because they seem to be well made and relatively inexpensive.

How much power do you want to make?

I would be happy with 500 which should be pretty easy

Rear wheel or flywheel?

Auto? Manual?

automatic for a trans. flywheel would be great

I wouldn't go any bigger than a BW S369sxe...

I'd recommend a Borg Warner S366 with the biggest hot side. I've got one on my otherwise stock 5.7 hemi. Full boost at 1800 rpm and still makes power up top. Weighs 4000 lbs and traps 120 so probably in the 500whp range.

FYI, the guy that posted above me has the S366 at a great price.
