if it gets the turbo its going to be converted to efi. after talking with a few other people, i think i have decided to pursue the turbo. i've got a lot of stuff to do to the car first so that will give me more time to research and decide what i want to do

That is not true. I used stock k-member, no spacers. runnin power brakes and the motor clears the booster with the tall valve covers, and FRPP swap mounts, P/S, alternator, and e-water pump with a one-off serpentine setup.

Heres a two year old pic with the serp setup off .



And if i could do it again, i'd go bulletproof small block 331ci, single turbo.
