I need to put this on my 360!!!
OK, custom exhaust, does it have to spool from both sides of the motor or just one? How do I plumb it back into the exhaust? It's supposed to come right off of the cylinders and then have a down pipe to the outflow, right. hmmmm

Oil in and oil out

Air intake in, through throttle body injection (carb won't work, but my fuel injection is in the works)

Any thoughts? What am I missing?

My advice is to go to the library or a good book store and get a good book on turbocharging. You need to size the turbo to the application too. And it will cost you quite a bit to do it correctly so you don't damage anything. You'll need manifolds, turbo, waste gate, oil lines, intercooler ( ? ), hoses and tubing to connect it and a special exhaust system to mention some of the basics. Sounds like a good project though, keep us posted.

Do you mean with a turbo? It will but you have to build it especially for a turbo as the turbo blows through the carb. The carb is always under pressure, you have to know what you're doing to get it working right. And everything ballanced, the right sized turbo, waste gate, carb, jetting, timing, ect.

yea that was meant to be sarcastic, i owned an olds T-type regal with a turbo v6 and it was carbureted, the only difference was the power valve, but being a computer controlled carb the main metering rods could be opened up under load, the link wasn't working but yea everything has to be matched and tuned to work correctly
