Who is a Turbo Guru on here? I want to build a turbo small block for my 16' Cutlass. I need to be steered in the right direction.
Thanks

Find a pair of Gentry water jacketed turbine housings. The small ones are odd something like .8 or .7 A/R (Brumment, Schiada, Vern, etc) . Don't buy the 1.15 A/Rs, they'll be way to big for a small block. Get a pair of T-4 garret cartridges with V-1 trim compressors and buy compressor housings. That should be the cheapest way to get the complete assembly. Install a high lift short duration cam with good lobe seperation (112-116). For pump gas run 7.5-8:1 compression 32 degrees of total timing and moderate boost (8-10 psi) with an intercooler and you have a blast.
