This has got to be one of the oldest active threads on the forum. LOL!

I thought I would pop in again.

My 10 pounds of stuff in a 5 pound sack.

407ci Dart Little M block, Trick Flow CNC heads, Turbonetics 60-1 Hi-Fi .69ar P trim about 8.5:1 and 10-12 pounds of boost. Tons and tons of fun.

Nothing to compare to all these monsters, but if you're on a budget...
Edelbrock 350 Pro-Flo EFI crate engine (ZZ4 with E-tec heads). 375hp & 360 lb/ft (engine dyno baseline)
Added a single Holset HX35 turbo and intercooler off a Dodge Cummins diesel, 43lb injectors, and dynoed 530hp & 604 lb/ft.

Thats 150hp and almost 250 lb/ft... For 900 bucks total (exhaust, MAF, everything)... And it didn't break under 15lb of boost.

Read about it soon in Auto Enthusiast.

what a great car do you get ,i love it .and the twin procharger set looks awsome . hope to see you sometime on santapod next year. greetings jacco,

Hi Jacco, thanks for the compliments. I really do hope to get to the Pod because your TT Camino is off the hook......Trust me mine is a bit of a junker close up. I can see the engineering and attention to finish in yours is so extreme.

Sounds cool. Let us know when it's out.

I've been putting in as much overtime as possible to save up, and I'm committing myself to run twin turbo. I'm still reading, and learning, but I am determined. I'm currently running a 396/375 with factory aluminum heads. I will probably get flack for wanting to turbo, but I can't help it. I'm committed.

I want to run EFI; Accel DFI Super Ram looks really appealing. I want to make my own plenum.

I still am reading more about how to build my system, and would love your opinions. I gotta do it.

throw out some ball park ideas.


Thanks

Matt,
I'm personally a big fan of that type of manifold. We are trying something a little off the wall with project "no-buck". I pulled the plenum box off and made plates to adapt 2 4bbl throttle bodies onto the top of the tunnel ram. It's almost done...look for updates in the power adders forum.

IMO, the bore size on the 396 really won't take the best advantage of your cylinder heads, but the turbos will make up for a lot of that.

[ledslinger]

Here's a couple renderings of what i'm thinking of doing for a plenum on the accel super ram manifold
-the logs won't be seperated
-i want to run 2 circular throttle bodies
-i'm considering extending the runners on the plenum






here's my motor with an air gap and ultra hp



18 hours overtime last pay period, savin up more and more.

-I got the motor with a standard bore stock spec bottom end, and swapped solid mechanical for comp hydraulic roller cam and rockers.

-I want to find the ideal rotating assembly for turbo, and would really appreciate your opinions.
-same goes for turbo's, injectors, fuel system, etc.

-I had an aeromotive a1000 system, but ended up trying out a few different mechanical pumps, and am running a simple carter for the street, thats worked better than anything else.


Ray- i just realized that your a wyotech instructor?
i started this project when I was 18, and wanted to get it on the street before I went to wyotech for chassis fab and engine building in Sacramento.
how do you recommend the best way to go about getting enrolled? can you get scholarships or grants?

[James21]

Working on my nova at the moment. Im only into it 850 bucks so far. Its a budget build. Its a single turbo (5.9 diesel turbo) I had it rebuilt. I have a custom manifold that's getting a little work done to it right now. I'm hopping to get to 450-500 HP. The turbo is a 60 trim with a 1.0 A/R. It should spool real quick, my motor tops out at 5500 RPM so it should run pretty well with the flow of the turbo. I'm running a qjet carb but will prob be replacing it with a blow through set up. I'm only going to run 8lbs of boost.

The nova


Turbo (not as pretty as most of these set ups but hopefully it will run good)

Building a 1971 Chevelle.

540 dart block
Twin 76mm turbos
FAST XFI 2.0 EFI
Air conditioning
Inner fenders
Overdrive
275 front tire, 315 rear tire.

Pretty pictures will come sooner or later. hard enough finding time to build it. This is not a commissioned build by any means.

FAST EFI, Holley Stealth Ram intake, 80 lb/hr injectors
(2) Turbonetics T04B 60mm turbos
730 HP/750TQ before the exhaust headers were changed out to higher flowing cast manifolds ( I expect a hefty increase in power due to how much the original system was restricted near the T4 mounting flanges)

'74 alfa romeo gtv, sbc twin turbo injected? 5 speed manual, roll cage.... long, ongoing, forever project (or untill my son hits 16 yrs whichever comes first) I put a question in this section under rotomaster, if you guys can help me with it that would be great. these rides sound great, good to find likeminded carfools out there!

Hey Larry. I spoke with you a few times about your build. I finally finished it. Here's my 15 pounds in a 5 pound sack...LOL
