Pics of the turbo build progress.

Needed to relocate the wastegate arm because it was in the way of the hood closing. The wastegate I got with the turbo is adjustable from 18 to 45 PSI. That's not going to work for me. I ordered a different one from ebay.

Turboes are in and hood closes. It's only 30 little jobs away from running again.

Hood almost closes, still needs a little work on this side. The other side is going to suck.

I want to make around 500whp. I am going turbo and my turboes are big enough. I am wondering what motor set-up to go with: ( tremec tko tranny, aluminium heads and single stage intake will be part of the mix) 1: shp block, forged rotating 331 assembly internally balanced, new flywheel...

Looks awsome.

Bad weather got me working on some stuff.

3 inch spacers on the left, 1.5 inch spacers on the right. I think I like the 1.5 inch spacers better.

I think I got all the bugs out of the brakes. Finished installing the suspension stuff.

A boost referenced fuel pressure regulator would require 5psi + the boost. I came up with 9psi of boost and 700hp as being something that could cover all eventualities. That's roughly 85gph @ 14psi at the carb. Those are pretty much the numbers that a blue holley pump can produce. Check the...

My fuel pump is making funny noises. I would like to upgrade to a pump that can handle boost with a carb. Any suggestions? I found this one, but it's much more expensive than a normal 7psi pump. https://m.summitracing.com/parts/hly-12-890 I want a good quality part.

I am trying to figure out a good place to fit a front mount intercooler. The hole under the bumper and over the front valence is kind of small. I was thinking of lowering the front valence, looks like its just a question of making different brackets. Idk how that would look tho. Do you have...

I got my ebay spacers. They made the centerhole way too big. It leaves very little materialbetween the stud holes and the center holes. I will see how it fits and probably end up making some or having some made to my liking. This is a 3 inch spacer.

About 3-4 lbs each.

Would of made them aluminium if I had was equipped to weld aluminium.

My laser cut stuff came in today, You can see were I am going with my lowering blocks.

I'd be real happy with those numbers. I'm going to buy a rebuilt kit and see in what shape my carb actually is before I change anything. I think I'm going to kick my coilover all together. I'm keeping the adjustable shocks and cutting down the springs that were in there. Feels almost as stiff...

How is the car at WOT before boost kicks in? Is it pig rich due to the oversized power valve holes?

I had a aem Uego in my modern 4 cyl home made set-up in another lifetime. I found that the gauge itself isn't all that great because when the boost hits I rly want to be looking forward. I also had a mecanical boost gauge (autometer I think) that lost it's 0 real quick. What I am rly looking...
