I have a stock 289 that I plan on rebuilding and putting a turbo on. Has anyone on here done this build yet? Im not wanting to do anything too crazy, just a nice street car in the 400 to 450 range.

Just get a motor that has that hp range. Waaay easier n simpler. Get a cobra motor or something. It wont have that turbo whine but will probably be more reliable and easier to set up.

Engine Suggestions on an engine rebuild. Stock cam/GT40Ps or aftermarket on both for a fun weekend driver?
