This is my first post here, I have a 1974 Chevy Monte Carlo with a 67mm Garrett turbo and blo-thru carb set-up. I built the driveline last year and in process of body and paint now.
I have about 540 Horsepower and the car has only been test driven a few times. Mechanical racepump fuel pump and Aeromotive boost ref. reg. with -8 fuel lines too & from the tank. 575 cfm BG Mighty Demon Blo-Thru Stock HEI with weights pulled and welded, 22 degree's timing.
50mm Tial BOV and 38mm Tial Wastegate. Stock Exhaust manifolds with passenger side flipped. I bought the Turbo used from a Kid who had it on a Honda Del-Sol...The bearings were shot and the car could hardly make boost cause the turbo was too big for it.
I paid $400 for the $1300 Turbo and rebuilt it myself. I pulled the motor and put new bearings and Oil pump in it and a new double roller timing chain while putting a drain in the pan.
I run a -4 supply hose and a -10 drain to the pan. No Intercooler yet But I do plan to add water/meth injection soon.
I use a NGK Airdex wideband.
I also have a 69' Pontiac Firebird that someday I want to turbo...I bought a Precision 76mm for it and a set of H-beam rods..The motor is already built N/A for now with Edelbrock RPM Alum. heads and Comp Valvetrain and 775 CFM Annular DP Carb. MSD ignition and a handful of other goodies...It has a Supercase Muncie 4 speed and a built rearend too.
The Monte Carlo is going to be out prowling by the end of this summer and the Firebird is at least 1-2 years off from now.
