That's a T3/TO4...

The T70 will spool right around 5000 rpm. I don't suggest using a T70 unless you're going to be building a 600+hp drag car because there are FAR better choices.

If you want something that looks awesome, just get a decent top mount manifold and a T3/TO4 or similar turbo and polish everything.
