Manifolds and a turbo location are my biggest questions and $1200 stainless manifolds are not an option. Let me here your ideas!
My stainless manifolds were $850 shipped to my door. You won’t find anything cheaper or easier. As others have said, building a turbo Pontiac is not cheap. This is why a lot of people take the easy way out and go LS swap.
