I need to find a cracked or damaged cyclinder head for mocking up the turbo manifold. Does anyone, in my area, have a head I could have or borrow for mock up?
We are building a turbo/6 car, too. So far, we have only seen 8 pounds of boost, but even at that low boost levek=, this thing scoots!
My other car is a '72 Valiant with a belt-driven (Vortech) centrifugal supercharger, (10 pounds of boost) and this turbo car feels about as fast, seat-of-the-pants, already. The turbo car only weighs 2,680 to the supercharged car's 3,340, so that's a pretty big difference (660 pounds.)
What kind of car is this turbo motor going into, and what is its intended usage?
I'm very interested in your project, and I hope you will keep us updated with text and pics about the build.
Here's a pic or two, of our junk, if you haven't seen it.:wack:
