355's or 373's?

ok i have a mostly stock 89 iroc and waiting for emissions to go away because i have an lsx tall deck im going to swap in and gonna buy a twin turbo set up for it as well in future. now im rebuilding this car kind of backwards. im gettin a dana 60 rear end sset up, now they say 355's would work better with the twin turbo set up, because turbos like to be loaded harder, i was leaning towards the 373's. any input would be greatly appreciated

Re: 355's or 373's?

well i'm not one of the gurus on this site but i think they would agree you should really think it out before you just start putting parts in. i understand your buiding it back wards but..... component matching has some serious weight when building a car. i had "better" parts i left off my build because they just didnt match up to the build. i wanted my motor to be a good match from the hp goals,cam, stall, trans and rear. now that my car is done..... its sick fast, responds better then i could dream and i'm extremely happy with how it turned out. just some stuff to think about.
