71 Duster 360 turbo build

Forgot to post previously. New transmission is in and everything is running great. The converter is very tight. Stalls around 2800, and flashes to 4000 rpm running hy-gard fluid. I will likely thin out the fluid with some ATF +4 to loosen the stall up just a bit.

I’ve done a couple 1/8 mile draggy runs and mph is 100-101 at a very conservative 10psi and 20° timing. I’m just under 9:1 compression and plan to run 15-16psi on pump fuel.

The turbo is DEAD silent which I cannot stand so I’m also upgrading to an anti surge housing. I hope to get at least a little sound out of this 78mm

How’s the engine temp in that Phoenix heat? I’ve had mine out over the weekend a few times when it’s 95F and 1000% humidity and coolant temp wants to climb up to and beyond 210 in stop and go traffic. The turbo heat struggle is real. Lol
