Default New to the forum!!!

Hello. My names Josh, I live in Clawson, MI. I'm 17 and don't know much about all this stuff lol. I got a 95 camaro RS 3.4 V6 5 speed. Nothing special I know. I replaced the engine with one that only had 70k miles on it, I picked it up for 500 bucks. I put a stage 2 clutch in it. Made a custom test pipe for it and took off the cat. It has a glass pack on now but I have a flowmaster 80 series single in dual out for it. I just painted it at my school body shop las week. I'm not sure what to do with the car. I have a Garrett turbo that will handle up to 20 pounds of boost I got off a friend for dirt cheap. I would like to build the v6 and turbo it but I know a guy with a 327 small block just the bare block I was considering also. If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Here are some pics of it...




And this was me pulling the engine out this past winter



And one more of it in the paint booth last week

The turbo 327 would be amazing but it's gonna cost alot to do the 327. Building the engine then beefing up my trans then the rear end and my driveshaft too... Idk if it would be worth it. It seems like the turbo v6 would be a cheaper route for where I am in my life right now money and time wise... But I LOVE the way a 327 cammed out sounds :-D

Welcome Josh, tough choice there. The 327 would require a lot to make it work inside the engine bay and under the dash. The turbo v6 would envolve a lot of internal mods to the engine but would probably cost less and be more reliable in the long run.
