I have everything but the twins, I even have the manifold! Maybe I can borrow one off of Mike to get the retqs done on the head...... Would you be ok with that Mike?

I've got three stockers here, we just won't be able to hook them up to your IC unless 2nd gen pipes work. If it does, I have just about everything here. I can bring a turbo, short downpipe and 2nd gen turbo to IC tube with me if you think it will work.

Which turbo do you want? I have just a few just laying around. You could try a K-31 or a S475. Its just a race truck right? I also have a S366 available, but you've been down that road.
You could try the K-31 and see what she does. I'm planning on using the S475, but I can always get another one. You gonna have enough fuel to spool them big wheels.

No probs, I have an adapter plate to mount the turbo to the smaller foot T03 turbine housing for the K-31. I do also have a few smaller turbos available like the HX-35 or HX-40. The K-31, the exhaust housing might be abit big but that turbo is rated around 90lbs/min, which I think is more than the silver bullet. Its the same as a GT4294 71mm inducer 94mm exducer but with comes with internal wastegate. Tate can take it up to you on his next trip north. I might even have a hot pipe and 5in clamp for that turbo but I have to check. The wastegate is currently set to start opening at 40psi.

Had a buddy come over today with a small picker and my motor is OUT! The way things are going I really hope to have it back together and running for the august blackout. Just be a dyno chamber maid...... For now.

Tate, that K-31 is a GT4202. compressor 74/102 and the turbine is 82mm and A/R of 1.15 Its slightly bigger than the silver bullet on both the compressor and turbine. What do you think about putting it on Kev's truck? You think that its worth the effort? Is rated at 100lbs/min or 850HP

An el-cheapo almost as big as twins solution. Might be a slug to spool. I want to see how well Kev can launch the truck with this beast. If Kev can make a few passes this year it would be worth the effort. Everything else I have is too small for his truck.
