eBay Motors: T-70 T70 TURBO CHARGER AR70 35psi W/ Boost Controller (item 290066237162 end time Dec-30-06 22:45:49 PST) These seem to be in my price range. I would very much welcome opinions. Thanks!!!!!!

Dusty, I'd like to see more pics of your set-up if I could please. I'm still learning turbo's, but I'm a decent fabricator. So I'm trying to learn more about how to do the headers.

I'll check that out. Thanks!

Congratulations on the little one! They are great! Things are going OK here. My Wildcat will be roadworthy come spring. The Regal is still engineless.:mad: Gonna try to make something happen there this summer. Maybe see you at the track this year:biggrin:

I'm really hesitant to mess with twins being a noob. But I'm kinda curious now that you mention it. Whats a stock GN Turbo's A/R? Are stock GN Turbos cheapies since folks upgrade? On a budget so I can't get silly.

I'm still wanting to experiment with blow-through Turbo charging. As a novice, I really don't wanna do twins. I see powerstroke Turbo's all over E-bay, but the A/R numbers seem to high for a stock bore Buick 350. So...As a novice looking for an affordable Turbo, what fits the bill? I'm thinking...

Happy Birthday Tim! Howya been? Been awhile since I've run into you. Hope all is well!!

Thank you!:cool:

Hi Turbo guys, I'm slidding over from the V8 board again since youns will probably know this stuff best. Anyway, I know sometimes gear carriers overlap one way or another. I just wanna make sure I'm OK. My Regal has a GN 8.5 posi with 3.42s. WIll 3.90s fit OK? I know the local who sets em up...

Merry Christmas and Happy New year to all you Turbo folks. Special thanks to all who replied to my Turbo questions providing me with knowledge and links! Still planning the Blow-through unit as parts and knowledge accumulate.

Yeah, that 9-1 is kinda high, but thats why my intentions are for low boost. Besides, I have no cars with lower compression. Remember, this is to educate me. I got a 350 Regal that needs to gain some power over the next few years. Experimenting on my LeSabre is a must cause the Regal has 10.25-1...

Do turbos have numbers that identify their size? You know. like carbs have 600, 650, 750 etc. So two smaller turbos would work like one big one? Cause I'm more likely to find some old stock Buick or Chryslers ones than one big truck turbo.

So at this point is it safe to say I need a Turbo bigger than a 79ish stock Buick Unit? Remember, I'm not going to go insane on boost cause I got a 9-to-1 engine here. I was guessing 5 or 6 lbs max. And blowing it up experimenting is no big deal as I have a spare late 70s 350. I'm gonna try to...

Thanks for the link!!! I may bid that. Anyway, whats a draw through compared to a blow through? I'm guessing that means under the carb but I dunno. Remember, Turbo stuff is all new to me. Also, do these old hot-air setup draw from the pass side exhaust only? Thanks for all the help everyone!

I appreciate any input here. You refer to the "Turbine side". Is this a reference to a part of the turbo, or to an inlet pipe? I was planning on using modified 350 headers and not manifolds if that makes a difference. I've sorta had this idea in my head for about a year. But I read the new...
