I pulled the big block to build it up an I put a junk little 305 in my 80 Z. I just bought a twin turbo set up for it now. I figure no better engine to play on than a 305 that i don't care about. I bought the kit that has 2 headers, 2 hybrid garrett3/t4 turbo's, 2 external waste gates, 2 blow off valves, an intercooler and all the piping and a bunch of other odds and ends. I just have to modify it to fit my car perfect but it should be fun. I can't wait i'll post pics as i complete. What are your thoughts? How much boost do you think i can run with being semi safe? I don't care about the 305 but i want to get everything ready for when i put the built 350 or 400 in.

 

dude....i mean thats cool and all. but it really depends on what kind of shape the 305 is in. cause you could have the thing running for 5 mins and you could bust a ring. because the compression on that 305 is low. and now your shoving x amount more of air in there. there is so many things that the turbo can do that will mess up the 305 in a matter of mins. and also if you pulled your big block out to spruce it up why are you putting a small block back in it? and if you ever want to put the big block in you will have all turbo plumbing all over the place. different motor mounts and who knows what else you will have to modify. you should just wait. and build the big block to run with the turbo.....that would be sick. but anyway it sounds cool non the less. but think about that. get the pics up.

 

That's what i want to do is put the turbo on the big block. I need to make custom headers for the big block so i won't even need to chenge the piping or anything. Plus i have solid motor mount's which are the same big block and small block so it will be close. I know i'll have to do the headers though. The only reason im putting the 305 in is so i can get everything set up so i don't blow the big block up right away (the 305 is a low milage motor so it should be ok) But thats my plans is to go twin turbo big block someday. I'll post pics as soon as i get it. Here's the link to the kit i bought
