Default I think I found the motor of choice

Im think of getting the 351w dart Iron eagle then stroke it to a 408w 8.5 compression...then Im going with a 76mm turbo @ 6psi....all on top of AFR 205 with a andersons B-51 cam and trickflow Box r series intake manifold ..how does that sound...I know it will flow lots of air..what size TB should I go with, I was thinking of 80mm tb and a 90mm maf, or is that too big? and any suggestion on the parts for sure im going dss dart iron eagle 408w stroker....and then the 76mm turbo should flow enough...any ideas

my neighbor runs 10psi on pump gas. if timing is right and everything you will be fine. remember with a street car you dont run it for all out power, u run it for safe power. your a/f ratio will be a lil fat on the street.
