Same turbo I now have..... I just got mine fired up last weekend with the new BW Bullseye S480 with 1.32AR, changing converter today & hopefully can get it out & see how it spools. What CID? Cam specs? What size primaries & collectors did you end up going with?

From what I can see on the topside of that motor, you will be using that turbos potential up fairly easy!

Not sure yet on the bore it will be no bigger than 446. The new block is over at the machine shop as of Monday. Mach Machine does all my machine work. He builds alot of nitrous pro mod motors. The cam is is a lunati solid. Mach hooked me up with his guy Steve at Lunati who does lots of turbo grinds. Primaries are 2" into a 3" collector. The crossover will also be 3". Converters are tricky with turbos. If you need help with that let me know. I have guru that has special converters he does for turbo cars.

Hey Ron!
Going back on the street! Wanted something different. Not many turbo BB Mopars out there.

Cool, looks good. Wish mine had all that room around front end. I like the way you did the turbo mount also with the T6 flange. I gotta fix my wastegate I pegged the gauge at 20 PSI twice yesterday You won't have any trouble spooling that S480, mine is putting out around 3 PSI at 2500 RPM & my exhaust system is way way too big & only 394 inches. Boost is definitely addicting.... turns a mild mannered motor into a video game like animal. Power? not a problem... keeping it on the road & out of the ditches... may be a problem

Hoping to have mine ready by then, maybe a little earlier. Gotta fix the motor and put it back in.
