If i go blow through i have to change the regulator,pump,add a return line to the cell, pay to have the carb modded.
From what i've read blow through has it's fair share of problems on the street with it's tuning.
So really, why shouldn't i do draw through?
I have a friend that ran a draw through setup on a 350 nova back in the day and it was very streetableand fun to drive.
I was a metal fabricator, i am now a carpenter of 26 years and my Dad was a mopar mechanic for 36 years i know a little bit about building things from nothing.
Just needed some help picking turbo sizes.
You guy's need to broaden your horizons




Sounds like you've got a firm decision on draw through and have all the resources you need to make it work great. Good luck




Thank you, i'm going to try.

Yeah, I think it's a bit heavier than 2,900 pounds. Our '70 Dart weighs 3,400 without driver.

Turbo project sounds interesting, keep us posted on it.




Holy Crap how much of that POR stuff did you use?

lots of luck with your project

So you never answered the question. Aside from being stubborn...why WOULD you want to do a draw through.

Because thats what i'm going to do and i don't see where i'm being stubborn ...





So your answer to why you would do it is, "Because."

That's sort of the definition of stubborn.

stub·born


/ˈstəbərn/


adjective

adjective: stubborn

having or showing dogged determination not to change one's attitude or position on something, especially in spite of good arguments or reasons to do so.

Well the internet is probably the wrong place to be looking then. I suggest you try books... preferably dusty ones with black and white pictures. Only those will have the encouragement that you're looking for doing the right thing with cutting edge technology.

Good luck.

That a 68 GT? No way it's 2900 unless you've got lots of fiberglass and gutted. Close to 3300 if it hasn't been thoroughly lightened!

Thanks, i havn't weighed it and don't care all i know is the piece of crap in it now ain't no fun anymore. Even with all the go fast parts it probably only makes 225 at the crank, not acceptable. And when i go the 360 route it will be costly cause it's getting a stroker kit so i'm just looking to have some fun at my expense before it get's expensive lol. Just planning on picking up some cheap turbos and learning a few things, my reading retention sucks so i learn hands on.

Good luck on your project!

Although, after playing with turbo stuff for awhile - your pain threshold must be pretty high - or will need to be to see it to the end and call it tuned to your expectations. There's a reason people don't do things that way anymore, which I'm betting you will find out for yourself. Just remember - everybody TRIED to help! LOL

But honestly, good luck with your project and take lots of pics!

Can anybody plot the range and trajectory of a carburetor after it goes thru the hood under a 10 PSI of boost backfire? 20 PSI?

What would the effect be steel vs 'glass hood, right vs left carb?


Seriously, quickd100 has had some success blowing up a 318 with a draw thru running a single Thermoquad and making the numbers you are looking for and then some.

I found if you use the Mopar factory accelerator cable will keep it from going very far.

My Dad got to test drive a twin turbo Shelby Charger that the boys from the proving grounds were playing with, said it ran like scalded cat but tried to pull you in the ditch! Torque steer was still an issue lol

Seems like cost is a huge factor. Don't know how low buck you could complete a hack job turbo setup because it's not how I operate, but I can tell you if you choose a cast 4.000 crank from Ohio, Scat I beams, and KB hyper pistons that stroker project for the 360 block wouldn't be too pricey granted you've got heads that could support it. By the mention of go fast parts I'm guessing you've got decent cylinder heads, and if you do why did you put them on a short block so low in compression?

Bought it that way. I was told it had 10.1:1 ross pistons in it, wrong. Pistons are .092 in the hole with 72cc chambers in the heads and a .056 thick head gasket 4.060 bore. I've got a whopping .017 piston to valve clearance on the intakes, the heads are 360 j's with 2.02 intake and stock exhaust. They never even swapped out the exhaust seats, they were hammered and the original reason it came apart. The .528 solid cam is the only reason it lives, i shift at 6800 and i've beat the crap outta it with no issues yet....
