    Re: My 68 Homemade Turbo Slant6 Dart

    I too believe 350 is plenty, because if you look at it mathematically, it only takes 325 cfm to turn a 225 cubic inch motor @ 5,000 RPM if the volumetric efficiency "were" 80%. 500 is just adding...

    Re: My 68 Homemade Turbo Slant6 Dart

    Well, with an absolutely "stock" slant 6 the timing should be 0 initial while idling, and 32 advanced at "All in" with no vac advance hooked up with a 1 barrel Holley Carburetor. On that setup I went...

    Re: My 68 Homemade Turbo Slant6 Dart

    I think I have a theory as to what can be the issue here - I recently changed the "boost" gauge to a "boost/vacuum" style and notice i only get 10 inches of vacuum under idle. I tried adjusting the...

    Re: My 68 Homemade Turbo Slant6 Dart

    I initially had the turbo mounted with a huge exhaust leak that ran at 0psi, and the turbine barely spooled. Basically my old wastegate leaked like no ones business and no heat or pressure seemed to...

    Re: My 68 Homemade Turbo Slant6 Dart

    I hadn't even thought of the valves floating like that. I believe the valves are stock replacement. When I had the head rebuilt the machinest put in new valve springs, new valves and seats, and...

    Re: My 68 Homemade Turbo Slant6 Dart

    Sorry I couldn't log on to Turbo-mopar for a while. Was the site down or something?

    Anyway. I changed the gap down as suggested and it seemed to help a little. I closed them to .023 and tried...

    Re: My 68 Homemade Turbo Slant6 Dart

    mine is the larger slant. 225 cubic inch. I've not heard of others having issues under boost like this using the same manifold. A lot of people move straight for the 4bbl carb intake though, wheras I...

    Re: My 68 Homemade Turbo Slant6 Dart

    Yes, on boost the vacuum advance completely drops off leaving it at 18 degrees. This is limiting as you say but pretty much everyone I spoke to that has done their own slanted turbo has agreed that...

    My 68 Homemade Turbo Slant6 Dart

    I have been working for the last 4 or so months completing this project. I turbocharged a slant six in my 1968 Dodge Dart. I have literally built the entire setup in the driveway.

    I am searching...
