Title: Eyeying a turbo kit on the Samba...
Post by: bugnut68 on March 05, 2009, 02:23:30 am
I'm kinda curious as to what carb this turbo kit would need, and whether it would be a decent set up for my 1776 (Engle 100, 1.25 rockers, stock vavled heads with semi hemi chambers, ported and polished, 7.8:1 compression, and the rest of the specs aren't relevant, unless I've missed something?)  Just curious... I'm tempted to say screw painting and finishing my '70 and just try to make it go faster, and am wondering if this kit would be a wise investment...

I'm just trying to do some research before pestering the guy with questions (as a fellow Oregonian, we've done deals before, just don't want to waste his time). 

Thanks in advance!

You gotta watch that Brian Fye feller. He's probably already changed his mind and it's now going on his 1904-1968-2332 nitrous, Hilborn injected, dual Dell, turbo mid engine type 3, type 4 Ghia-Notchback race street car.  :P ;D
