    Like I was saying if it were me I would either mill the 317's down and port them or just port out the 862's. Keeping the compression up is going to help the out of boost driving.

    with that being said... i will most likely opt to run the 862's ported and polished.. as it would be easier on my pocket then throw some ls6 springs in and call it good.. ive always wanted to give a go at porting and polsihing

    Hey bro, welcome to the site. I'm the one that was mentioned earlier, stationed here at Offutt. I MIGHT be going out to the strip this Friday. Hit me up through PM if you wanna get together sometime. Got any Pics of your ride?
    Anywhere between 38 and 50 would be fine for a WG and BOV. I can't imagine you'll be pushing the boost too high. Maybe 10 lbs?

    That will do just fine, and if you can find a nice LS6 cam you will be even better.

    Just depends on your goals. Journal bearing will spool a tad slower, but is just fine for most everything and much cheaper. One thing you don't want to try and save $$ on is a waste gate. Get a good brand, I prefer Tial. Bov is not as important unless your planning on going over 10 psi.

    The best advice I have ever heard:... Only take B( . Y . )ST advice from someone that is CURRENTLY running a turbo setup close to, or bigger than what you want......
