Re: [Amc-list] Toms Turboed L Head ideas

[Joe Smith <know_ware@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey Tom, 
Sooooo, what would you charge to do that to my '61?  ;-)

re:  Quote: I still think a turbo bolted onto a 195.6 L-head would be just
great.  Pick an undersized turbo for early boost and pick a
max. of 5psi or so at 4000rpm. No wastegates or other controls,
just don't rev past redline and it'll never overboost.

Suck-through Carter YF, or a corvair sideways YF (whatever that
model is).

150hp won't stress things, the HP would be fun enough in that
car and the Kool Faktor would be just great. Though they'r enot
the cheapest motor to build the L-heads are plentiful and fit
right in the hole. There's sure enough room to stack turbo and
carb straight up to the hood! Unquote
