My projects are on hold right now, until I can get some money back in my bank accounts. My dad wants to work on his 1965 Chrysler New Yorker. Car has been garage kept for all of its life as far as I know. There is hardly any rust on it. Interior isn't bad just faded and will be re-done. The thing is a boat, but it rides good and doesn't handle all that bad. Its got drum brakes at all 4 corners and these will be upgraded.
Anyways on to the engine. We are thinking around 700 hp or so will be a nice amount to get this land yacht moving, and shock a lot of people. Originally advertised to have 10.1:1 compression, HP 340@4600, and torque 470@2800.
From what I have been reading the 413 should have some thick cylinder walls, plus ours doesn't have that many miles on it. So I think the 413 would have a slight strength advantage over a 440.
For the cylinder heads, I'm going with aluminum. I am considering using Eddy heads, My dad wants to use the new Trick Flow heads, but with a Turbo I don't think I need those heads, correct me if I'm wrong here.
Intake manifold I'm thinking a single plane intake.
I'm not sure how low to go on the compression ratio, don't want to go to low that It will be a dog when not under boost, so something like 8.5:1?
Since its a 413 I highly doubt there are going to be any off-the-shelf pistons that will work, so these will be a custom piece. So I can get some quench for the engine, rings will probably be the 1.5mm, 1.5mm, 3mm ring pack for reduced friction.
After reading about the camshaft on: theturboforum. I should have something around 112-114* LSA. Not sure how much lift or duration I need. I'm trying to increase the Efficiency of the engine, so it will be a roller cam.
Can't have a rough idle, whole point is to have a sleeper, so it's got to idle smooth and quiet.
Fuel Injection, Probably use the FiTech system.
Will a remote mount turbo work for what I'm trying to do here?
