This is my buddy ChaChi's 1970 Twin Turbo 70 Coronet. He has done this entire car on his own. Body, Paint, Trans, everything, Including this very cool Twin Turbo Setup. Can you see the hairdryers?

Awsome clean setup, I hope it runs really really well for you, then maybe we will see more nice clean installs vs the "City water works sized plumbing" that seems to be overkill and looks so bad.

I like it but the waste-gate prioritization is very bad .

Yah. But what do you know?
Are you using a blowoff valve on the Cuda?

Some updates. Got new wastegates and relocated them, they worked fine where they were though, I just didn't like the look. Rebuilt the left hand hot side to fit power steering, bigger brakes all around, sway bars, fast ratio arms, firm feel box etc. I love this setup, the car is super docile on the street and a blast to drive.

This car is amazing.

I like the details a lot.

Steel wheels and forced induction, it sounds like my car!

NICE..........was curious about what looks like a dual plane intake and how it`s distribution cyl. to cyl. compares to an open plenum..............

What size turbos did he use?

Re: My BuddysTwin Turbo 1970 Coronet.....Check it out.. - 11/06/12 12:48 AM

Is this a stock block and crank?

They're small Garrett T3's. I couldn't find any info from the P/N on the tag so I don't know the map, but they're .60 A/R comp, .89 A/R turbine. They're really similar to the GT30's.

Yup .030" over 383, flat top forged TRWs, stock crank & rods. Rods have polished beams and ARP bolts though. It's a grenade. I keep hoping it finally lets go so I can slide in a 6 liter I have out of a Siverado. Hasn't happened yet though. I keep a really safe tune in it though.

Re: My BuddysTwin Turbo 1970 Coronet.....Check it out... - 11/06/12 04:38 AM

Kinda hard to see them down there

The purists should notice something funny about my power steering pump.....

no way...really? a Chevy in a 70 Coronet? If you do just leave your mopar man card on the shop bench. I would like to see some pictures from above. I like how you mounted it all w/o cutting up the engine bay.

Wrap the oil feed line and PS lines with some insulation (like what you have on the charge tube, but smaller dia of course) or it will cook being that close to the exh housing. Also, try and get a blanket for the housings...

Very sweet

Wasn't that for sale a few weeks ago?

Re: My BuddysTwin Turbo 1970 Coronet.....Check it out.. - 11/06/12 03:06 PM

I'm not a Mopar guy, I'm a car guy who's partial to Mopars. Thanks for the compliments!! I had to notch the core suppport for the top tubes into the intercooler, and I had to make the square hole in the core support bigger for the outlet tube. It took a lot of planning to do it without cutting up the car too bad. I'll dig up some pics when I get home from work.

Yeah, I have the blankets, I just gotta install 'em. I have insulation on the PS line now, but haven't done the oil lines yet.
