I've never seen this before...

a 396 big block with dual quads and a turbo setup mounted to it. crazy, man. wonder what else is hiding under the skin...

how bout the quad turbo camaro that www.hotrodmagazine.com had featured???

that looks like a centrifugal s/c to me... looks like a paxton or powerdyne style setup...

the direction of the tubing looks like s/c style, doesnt look turbo style...

That is a supercharger.
Centrifugal...
Turbo's aren't gear driven...

i knew, that, i was pointing it out, i assume that there is a site those are from, i'd love to get the info...

Damn that car brings back memories of my '69 SS. Have to give 'em points for orginality though!

okay yeah this cars gonna seem out of place in this thread, but what about the bugatti eb110? its a quad turbo stock. look at it this way, u only pay a little over $100,000 for EACH turbo, and u get the rest of the car free!

hey fastrthanu.

that's a quick chevelle you've got there. Care to post specs?

That's one slick set-up......any idea as to the budget required to build it?

As for the buggatti........that sounds about right, hehe!!

:D

ANeg- here's what the chevelle's had done to the motor...

283 bored .030, hot tanked, magnafluxed, and then zero-decked, 305 heads (rebuilt, milled, ported and polished), 11:1 forged flat top pistons, chromeoly rings, full race cam, edelbrock air-gap intake, edelbrock 600cfm performer carb with modified accelerator pump, high volume oil pump, hi flow/low drag cooling system (Summit Racing water pump, 4-row 32fpi radiator) 60,000 volt ignition system, K&N Filtercharger setup, 2.5" Flowmaster/Dynomax exhaust.

coming up.... 1.6:1 Harland Sharp race roller rockers, Milodon deep sump oil pan

Can you please explain just what a "full race cam" is?

Kind of a crazy taste in paint schemes.

wouldnt your car go better with a 3.5" exhust?

he has dual exhaust. if he had any larger exhaust pipes he would lose some backpressure, and that's not good for a street driven small block in a big car. he needs all the low end power he can get.
as well, i would also like to know what a full race cam is. you would need some crazy ass overlap to bleed off the pressure from 11:1 compression or else you would need race gas!

chebbiesux- i'm surprised that you're not familiar with a parts "race" given the cars you have. there are a couple categories of engine parts...... each described by their "race" or how radical they are. it's a term that's been around hot rodders since the 30's-40's. there is "quarter race", "half race", three quarter race", and "full race" this terminology is most commmonly applied to cams, but is also applied to intake manifolds, and heads. each is a step above stock. for example, with a quarter race cam, it sounds pretty much identical to stock at idle(same with a half race, but with a touch of lope) but each has slightly more lift and duration than the one before. with a three quarter race cam, there is a noticable "rumpity- rump-ness" in the idle. a full race cam has a very rough idle. it's lift and duration are radical, especially in terms of street use.

a 2.5 inch exhaust is optimum for my motor to maintain proper exhaust gas velocity for a strong scavenging effect. i could have gone for a 3 inch and had good results with better breathability on the top end, but didn't want to spoil the sleeper image i have right now. dealing with the 11:1 compression ratio, i run both a richer mixture and retarded spark advance to keep the temps down and the motor out of detonation.

well, i have never heard of camshafts being described in any specifics with quarter race and such. i have heard of the terms, but i was more concerned with the actual lift/duration specs of the cam.
because, as you said in your description, a full race cam would cause drivability problems on the street.
well, the cam in my satellite isn't exactly street friendly, but it is not a full race cam. it is a .596 lift solid cam, with 305 degrees duration total. 256 @ .050
now, that is about a 3/4 race cam. a full race cam, which would be the absolute max of camshaft range, would have a lift of like .890", a duration of near 320 degrees, and like an overlap of 140 degrees. i doubt that your motor has a camshaft with specs like those!
with that small of an engine, anything in the .550 lift should be the max you could run on the street without a 5000 stall converter. unless you have 4.56 gears.
where's the elevation of the track you race at? if it's 2500ft+ than your 11:1 is probably possible without the insanely retarded timing

the race of a cam isn't the specific specs. it's the size of the cam in relation to the ci of the motor. what would be a half race in say a 400 small block, would be in the range of a full race in, say a 265, 283, or 302. HOT ROD observed this rule a year or two ago when they built a 305 and put a mild 350 cam inside. i'm not sure of my exact specs for my cam because the motor insides and bottom end was built right before i got my car(driven 10 miles before i got it). race is determined by the sound at idle.

fair enough
