Just keep in mind ,that turbo is sized to feed 400 some odd cubic inches at 3000 rpm .Less than ideal for a 454 at 6000 rpm.
It might work well on a much smaller motor at about 5500 rpm tops.
Might want to get the specs on how much air it feed before getting too far into it.Its gunna take longer than u thought and its gunna cost more too(plan ahead!)

It would be going on a 4.3 v6 I also have a small 13b turbo would that be better suited for this motor I'm looking at a low boost setupsNever Criticise A Man Until You've Walked A Mile In His Shoes. That Way When You Criticise Him You'll Be A Mile Away And You'll Have His Shoes

With all due respect, you need to do some reading and learn how to size turbos.....

We built & sell our own turbo's, we us to make all Garrett's turbo's from late 70's-93 then the French bought the contracts. We now have our own line of housings and use Garrett/Airesearch rebuildable centers.
Here is my brothers Toyota MR2 mid 4cyl motor with turbo. It puts out 1000hp. the turbo's inlet is 4"
