67 cuda turbo

[nitrohemi]

Thought I would share my 67 383 turbo cuda. I have an efi gold box with mega squirt controlling fuel and spark among other things. Making almost 10 lbs of boost in parking lot testing. Have some tuning to do but in the spring it should be on the road. Just got closed loop idle figured out. Next is cranking fuel as its a little hard to start sometimes. Been a fun project with learning megasquirt. 2 step and 3 step setup. Next will probably be a boost controller and e85.

Looks like a fun ride! Can you post some info and photos of the hotrod in the second picture?

Damn, that's nice. That's exactly what I've been looking for as a roller. What front suspension setup was on it?

Mustang 2 front suspension. Its one that I wish I didn't get rid of but it was being driven much.

I wish they would make left hand and right hand turbo housings. I must have symmetry!

They do. They’re called mirror image turbos. Patented by NRE and now copied by everyone else. My new 67s are mirror image.

Nice. That’s right up my alley. Can you share a little more about the combo? Engine size, cylinder head, compression, what fuel, what turbos, etc. please.

Now we are talking! Those are a thing of beauty!

383 with 906 heads. Pump gas for now but I plan on running e85 once I get the flex fuel sensor figured out. I believe they are gt45 turbos. I don't need to be making too much boost. 10 lbs. is probably the limit. Cam is around a .515 lift solid flat tappet. I would think the compression is around 9-1. Log style exhaust manifold I put together with intentions of building another set. They work although I think they contribute to turbo lag when I launch the car. Some of that may be in the tuning also. Once the boost comes in its a different animal.
