    Saw this on ebay, the price range is right where i want it, but what is the quality of it? and would 2 of these be enough to feed a mopar 440?

    Umm, you might want to do a search on SSautochrome on this site.

    Other than beating up on ss autochrome, you should really use two t4 turbos to feed that many cubes. Look a few posts up on what happens to a turbo with too restrictive a hotside.

    thanks for the replys, I'll drop this idea then:)

    I'm so lost when it comes to turbo sizes and especialy when theres allot of engine to feed...

    Btw, the search funktion is disabled atm so i cant find the goodies about SSautochrome:)

    No stranger to boost, but a compleat stranger to big turbos.

    I'm shoting for 700~800hp since thats right where my chassi will work best, i think atleast. And the engine block will most likely hold this amount of power.

    Specs as of today, 440RB bored .030
    Forged crank, H-Beam, Ross pistons not decided since i havent picked my heads yet. also Cam is still to be made. Comp ratio will be 8:1-8,5:1

    Final decision of this build will go by a friend of mine and former engine builder at Autoshop.



    Use of this engine is 80% track, 20% streetrace.

    Oh, almost forgot... the turbo plans are for 2007, next season will be procharged.
