I talked to you guys awhile back about some single turbo headers for my 69 Camaro. Do you guys have any yet??? If so could you give me a price and post some pics??

Thanks Ron

Sure. They don't take too long to make. But I'll have to find them if I still have them. I took some a while ago for a guy, but have switched PC's.

Here ya go. They are .500 inch think flanges. 1  5/8 tubing into 2.5 collectors. With V-bands welded on they are 650 for the pair. When you get them, put on a little orange RTV and bolt them on without gaskets.

Installed on the car they will be upswept facing forward. Just add to it what you want for a single, or twin. Or we could finish them.

Pretty soon. Haven't got them on the car yet. SBC is so easy compared to most, you can build them on an engine stand. We've looked and it'll fit the P/S pump also. He's got a few more things to buy, then it'll go on. I think he wants to put it on here in the next month or two.

Ok. He wants to put it on before a show in Oct, so we'll see. that's a ton of work. The VERY smallest thing I would put on that is a T-76 on a GTS wheel. How much HP do you want ? You could run the 76, but the back pressure would be pretty high.

I think 550rwhp would be fine with me!

Here is my combo:

408 sbc......factory block
Eagle cast steel crank
Forged Probe pistons/moly rings
Eagle SIR 5140 I beam rods(5.7's)...arp bolts
10 to 1 comp
AFR 195's...68cc
RPM air gap
HP950
Comp XS274S solid flat tappet....274/280.....236/242....534/544.....110
TH400.....Continental "tight" 10"
GV overdrive
Currie 9"....3.50 posi
26" DR's

How do you think my current shortblock would handle the boost?? I was also thinking if I added boost I would need to swap the heads for some 75cc units to get the comp ratio to 9 to1 .  Swapping in a single plane Vic jr  would also be in the plan.
