Nice work! any future plans for it?
What turbo are you planning on going with? Twins possibly? Something like an HE351 with mechanically actuated vanes would be a sweet set up.
do have any idea how much power you are putting to the wheels?
I don't yet. I do know stock the engine had only 160 HP. I added a smaller exhaust housing on the turbo which just made it spool faster and did a couple pump mods including the fuel pin and governor spring. Then I decided to do the head gasket and ended up with some DDP Stage 2 injectors (50-75 HP). It is just a rocket right now and I wanted to get it dynoed before I do any more mods so I can see where I am at.
Ouch only 160 with a 454 id hate to see how much my 350 is putting down
The 160hp is likely from the Cummins, they were not very powerful by those numbers but had gobs of torque.
Sent from my big block powered HTC gas guzzler.
160 is the stock HP on that model of Cummins
Remember though, on an engine that doesn't even spin above 5200 RPM, you're curves are never going to cross, so HP isn't a huge consideration.
