Twin turbo 93

[heavychevy98]

told me everything thanks i dunno bout anything yet just sorta an idea im considering. I think a holset hx50 is a bit big for a low rpm 350 so i may have to find a new turbo .

Here's a quick update. Getting the carb tuned took a little time, but it was worth it. The truck gets 14+ on E85, and riding in it, you'd probably never guess that it's got a carb on it. The project has had it's ups and downs though. For some reason I've been plagued with valvetrain issues. Mainly because I originally intended for this to be a relatively cheap build, and because I wan't to see how well a stock 355 could run. If I would've just put a set of aluminum heads on her, I wouldn't have had any of the problems, and obviuosly it would run better..........but that might also be more than the stock crank, rods, and cast pistons can handle.

Bad ass ! I've been thinking about a single turbo under my cab . And after texting with ya ive got some new ideas .

How street able is the blow-through setup? I mean any drivability issues? I would love to run turbo(s) on a carb engine, but not if it was a compromise or “cranky”.
