need help deciding
Alright guys right now on the camaro I've got an N/A cam with plans to build a cam spray 355. The thing is I want to end up with a boosted motor someday. I've always wanted to own a turbo'd car and I am kinda thinking right now would be the time to do it. Going for that would delay the project farther then it already has been because I'd have to buy a new cam and obviously a turbo(s) and everything that goes with it. My shortblock won't change except I'll need different pistons then what I planned and wont be able to use some of my parts that I already have (as i mentioned). What do you guys think I should do; one side of me wants to just finish it and get it running on the bottle, the other side of me wants the snail mod.
If I do the turbo, then I would probably put the 231/239 cam and my milled heads in the fireturd...
Help me guys I need some guidance.

Based on my personal experience building something once, and again...and then again with each iteration upping the power/setup, skip to where you want to be. Sure it will take longer but it will be worth it. I liked nitrous but I didn't think it was cheap to fill and in my area, filling stations were scarce. As a shameless plug, I have a set of nice JE pistons made for boost and Callies rods for sale in the classifieds. Good luck with your decision.

Thanks for your input, I also don't have readily available nitrous fill stations either, thats another reason to be second guessing my build I suppose.
