Does size matter?
For you turbo guys building for speed, is more cubes better comparing a 356 @ 4.125 x 3.335 or a 327 # 4.000 x 3.500? People always say that the 327 chevy loves rpms and nascar uses a 356 @ 9000?
What is the best combo to make the turbo spool faster and make power sooner?

the newest HOT ROD magazine answers your question exactly, sorry but i dont have a specific reference, except the cover says something about adding turbo to a 327, the article is very good and has great details as to specific parts to use. it was towards the rear of the mag in the "Reader Questions" section.

Better to do your own research, on such a site. Learn to read turbo maps, and compare the options to what you want to do... there's a lot more to this question than simply saying "small engine, big turbo," or vice versa...
As well, what you're looking at (street, street/strip or strip only) will tend to guide you to what's the best package you're looking at...
Good luck.

I would get a beer and look at your engine bay for a couple of hours.
I have a good quantity of useful stuff if you want to make a TT 355.
