      Pics of Banks Twin Turbo kit on our 383

      These pics are of a 383 I designed while at Speed Merchant. Its one of the first Banks twin turbo kits that rolled off the line. Notice the Billet Specialities serpintine kit.



      The purple wasn't my idea ;)

      You wouldd not happen to have any more pics would you? How does it look from the back? I am trying to get a good idea if a setup like this will fit in my Camaro.

      I am not so sure- the motor is a tight fit, especially on the driver side where the steering servo and shaft are located. Looks like that the way to go on this car may be with a single supercharger unit.





      There is little doubt in my mind that I will change to an LS2 motor later on. The car is really overweight (IMO) and I need to get about the same amount out of the front as I can save on the aluminum block LS2 vs cast slug SBC. I really want to get the finished weight of the car down to 2,700 pounds if I can. That is going to mean making it weight less than it does now, but I still have to put in an interior. Guess the interior is going to be pretty spartan. ;)

      The car is a 65 Buick Wildcat and yep its purple with a purple powder coated frame and a full tiltforeward front clip.
      If you look in the upper right of the photo you can see some silicon hose.
      That had to be imported from the (color match) UK 5 ft came to $180 and a 6 month wait

      Man, that is just the coolest set up. And builds plenty of power.
