With your stated goals, turbo LS is definitely the easy button. If you want turbo 350 and keep it cheap gonna need to lower the bar.

I agree. Port injection should have crisp response regardless of intake manifold runner length. I'm thinking more along the lines of when the torque peak occurs naturally aspirated. A short runner intake will make peak torque later in the curve vs a long runner intake. For this application I want the torque peak earlier in the usable rpm range.From everything I've read, that's not an issue with port injection. Single plane intakes dominate everywhere with port fueling.
Carburetors and throttle body injection prefer dual plane intakes at the low end.
An LS would meet the power goals for this build easier than a Gen 1, no question about it. This isn't cheap and I'm not staying with the Gen 1 because I think it's cheaper. I can transfer the terminator x max from a gen 1 configuration to control an LS if I decide to go that route.With your stated goals, turbo LS is definitely the easy button.

I've wanted a turbo small block for a long time and last week I decided I'm finally going to do this. I've been collecting parts for this build literally for years. The time to start the project never seems to reveal itself and I'm tired of waiting. I'm just going to get started and juggle everything else in life until it's done.
Thank you.The Holley would definitely be easier to tune ifbl that's something you can swing.
