just like anything else a dyno is only as good as its calibration and/or operator, pretty sure this is a stocker

Looking good, I like the stealth look

Very nice! Must like the 323 gear on the street? When is the next track outing?

How is the hot rod coming along?

Looks good, thanks for the pic.

I will be watching for updates, I had to reread from the beginning of the post, very nice job!

What rpm through the traps? It may or may not, be interesting to see how it reacts. It might help out on the start line. I have notices on a lot of turbo cars it didn't seem to make much difference, but most of that was in the 1/4 mile.

Very nice! Awesome build! I like the stock sleeper look. I want to do the same with my dart, looks like the fie tech works well, was waiting to see how well they worked for blow through deal. Have you tried a different gear? Still 4.30's? Turbos love to pull the higher gear.

IMO 7-8lbs should be no problem with a cast crank as long as your tune is good. Guys run twice that with stock cast cranks with no trouble. Compression may be a bit much depending on fuel used. Why such low rpm redline on such nicely built 340? I would wind that one out to at least 6k or more.

Great job on the turbo install! Been wanting to do a small block ebay turbo deal but a slant might be a better option to start with, a lot more room to work with, and if ya burn one up you can throw another one in. I just passed on a 69 4 door with a 4 barrel and header for 1k, I should have...

Here is some entertaining reading. These guys do it with LS power all the time. http://www.theturboforums.com/threads/368907-1979-Malibu-Wagon-(denmah-edition)

Nice work! Gives me some more ideas on a hot side setup. Looks like power steering is not an option when using magnum manifolds, guess I will be swapping out the steering box.

VS racing has some pretty good package deals. Depending on what size turbo you want to use. One for my 340 is $868 for turbo, inter cooler and piping, waste gate, blow off valve, t4 flange, oil feed and drain lines, and turbo discharge and clamp, bigger turbo is couple hundred or so more...
