Default twin turbo setups for 454

what would be more efficient on a 454 big block

normal:
2 identical turbos

sequential:
1 smaller turbo and one larger turbo, both feeding the intercooler

or compound:
1 smaller 1 huge turbo with the smaller one driving the larger one.

or a single huge turbo?

stock stroke, .040 pistons, around 8.5:1 compression

approximately 7.1 liters of displacement.

and fuel injection

badass, its a toss up what to do i dont know a lot about the v8 stuff and what works well or better. but i think it would be sweet to do what the diesel trucks do, with one turbo feeding the other one! itd be sweet as hell.

I'd say 2 SC61's or equivalently sized personally. It's not like you'll be lacking in low end torque with such a big motor anyway. How often do you see a 8.1L bog the launch?
