well my name is eddie and i have a 1968 mustang coupe which i want to make a blow thru carb boosting set up i know you guys probably get this a lot but i want to turbo my car on a budget and i was looking if someone can direct me in the right direction or links anything that would help me from start to finish any help would be appreciated oh and to begin with i have a demon carb

 

Use the search feature... you will find a lot of useful information on this site and probably answer most of your questions on your own... and welcome!

 

yeah i know thanks i have tried but there is so much info on the search feature like i dont know where to even start or what to look for and thanks i know this forum will help me with everything i need

 

Your in the right section. Ask and look for specifics. Try searching for things. Your right, it does come up all the time. But a newb that does the research, but is confused about something, or needs a little extra will get all the help in the world here. It's over whelming as shit, but pick and area and start there. Then spread out.

Try to search the carb forums for the fuel system. Like A100, boost referenced fuel regulator, hangar 18 mods, search demon, they tend to be lean in blo thru.

 

Do you know the cubic inches of the motor you're going to run? power expectations? ET goals or just fun factor? Think about what goals you want to achieve, what you already have that you're going to use and then try narrowing the search down (i.e. 302 single turbo, or 351 twins etc.). We all know there is a bunch of information on here but you will learn so much MORE just by searching. To my knowledge- I havent seen a page or anything that is going to go from point A. to point Z. on telling you how to build the car.

Maybe these can be a small start for you? good luck.

 

yeah you guys are right i am going to start with certain sections at a time like fuel system then go to turbo kits ect. thanx for the info and i want a blow thru turboed 302or 347 for fun factor and to go fast not really looking for any Ets or tract time

 

If it's a stock block, just do the 302. the 347 really won't be any faster or be able to make more power.

 

All I can suggest is to take your time and prepare to learn everything about everything. Learning to weld is probably in your future as well.

Do whatever this guy says...period

 

yea i will do what the experts tell me well ill start with the fuel system.. what do i need in fuel system parts to support a turboed car? and this one is for 10secgoal i know the PHR 67 coupe used 22 galon 70 musyang tank and just sumped it? is there any specific or links to how that was done?

 

go into the builds boards and look for a build thats similar to what you want. Wether its a 60's mustang or an sn95, the fuel system, engine, transmission and carb will all be the same.

Heres an idea.

Just search thru builds and you'll find tons

 

I think it only has a 20 gallon. The 22 takes more work because the angle of the filler neck is different. But that article messed up a few things. Like the AFR. It said it made 477 at the wheels at 10.9, and it was actually 10.09
Here's another in depth oldie
