Thanks for the feedback Ben,

Hopefully the axles wouldn't be an issue! It does look like an interesting opportunity as it "should" be an easier install etc. Right now Chevy does not seem to be offering a "crate" version but used ones seems to be available for around $2K~

Plus you could still get crazy if you wanted as it looks like the mounting for the V6/V8 would be very similar so if you wanted to upgrade later that could be an option... Of course I found a company out there who is making a twin turbo kit for the Chevy V6 and making 575HP so that could be an option too!

I'm definitely spinning the wheels on this one so any other feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks!
