Default turbo on carb?

new here... lots of questions...
i have a 1971 mach 1... 302ci putting out ~400 horsepower.. i want to do a twin turbo setup. i have been told to do two t3s. obviously this is a carburated car. im going to go with i guess a blow through method. for that i need to make a carb hat. but my question is the sealing. i heard problems of leaks. what do you think? and then my other question is http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/T3-T4...45571491QQrdZ1 those turbos they say are good for making 300 hp... im already passed that... but hten again i want 2.. give me some recommendations.. thanks in advance

those ebay turbos you have there, you get what you pay for. go to a junkyard for your turbos and have them rebuilt if they are shot. cost will be about the same, and you'll have a much better product in the end
