My 67 has a similar setup,,She runs a 468cu with a twin Garrett turbo system.She runs on 87 regular unleaded ,with 9.5 comp. and 7lb. of boost. Right now hp is a guess at best.And soon to be a 5 speed instead of the 4.

I think I'll need room for a passenger to ride along. How big are those turbo's? Maybe I could use one on my future 383 setup.

Probably 105's... that is the latest rage. Insane power... absolutely insane.

I really was close to running 2 63's or so on my big block until I priced wastegates... 2 grand there just put it over the top and outta reach for now.

I did not take the picture myself, but was looking for some info regarding this type of setup because I know nothing about it and thought it might be a nice finishing touch on my 454 :eek:

Thanks for any info. ;)
