2.3 carbed turbo blow thru 2bbl
jeff simmons:
Believe it or not, when I rebuilt my engine about 12 years ago now I wasn't planning on a turbo. I saw the turbo coupe sitting on the side of the road I ask the owner and he said you want it go get it. That being said I'm running forged flat tops, The head has been milled .080 And I haven't even backed the timing off any. Iv'e had this set up for 4 years now. Last summer I finaly changed the plugs and no signs of detination. I know that much compression and timing should be devistating to my engine, I don't know why it works so well. In the beginning I just wanted to try the turbo out then work my way up to fuel injection. Last summer we was driving to a car show about a 130 miles away and I got a crack in the oil line to the turbo after fixing we was going to be late so we was driving about 80mph right on the edge of fuel starvation about 3# of boost and we got 27 mpg. On the stampede trip I'm planning to drive normal I'm hoping to get 30mpg.
