i am a turbo fan myself. i would probably go with a TT and fuel injected set up. if done right, you could eliminate turbo lag. its all in the sizing of the housings. of course, since there probably isn't a commercially available TT set up for the old big body mopars and their motors, so you will have to take into consideration all of the fabrication having to take place. you will need the headers, and all of the intake piping. definately not what you would consider a budget project. for a decent set up, with the custom headers and all, if you had to farm out the work, i'd say in the neighborhood of 4 or 5k. but it would definately follow suit with the more modernized aspects of the hobby. as would a centrifical (sp) blower, such as a novi2000. then there is always the bang for the buck aspect of nitrous. The best starting point is a good strong motor. fully built bottom end, to support anything that would be thrown at it. then you would need to consider the flow properties in relation to the induction package, being blown, or nitrous injecter, or simply N/A......these are just some ramblings and thoughts. food for thought.
