    Hey guys I am building a Cadillac 425 to put in my 1980 Camaro. The more I have researched I would rather just do a single turbo off of a either a 12 or 24 valve cummins motor. I am not looking for crazy power but there's no reason I can't hit 5 to 600 hp. I will be running a higher flow intake and the heads will probably be ported just a tad but the motor will be pretty stock. I am open to all suggestions.

    A single 5.9 Cummins turbo will not have a large enough turbine (or compressor) to work with the 425. Setup as twins would be much closer.
