Where would a person start learning about turbo charging a BBF 460? What size turbos, fuel injection, exhaust manifolds. etc.

 

for turbo sizing I would star by tlakin to dave@majestic ... of majestic turbo ... hes been a ton of hel with helpin my turbo sizng thats who im buyin from

 

Thanks a lot. I'll check them out and see what it's going to take. I want the HP the scream and something different than the standard blower sitting on top of the motor. There's something about the whine of a turbocharger that I love. Maybe that comes from driving truck for so many years.

 

Is this the place in Waco, TX?

 

dont think so this is the link on daves profile http://majesticturbodallas so i think they are out of dallas

 

Thanks, The internet can be a strange beast at times. I tried your link and it wouldn't work so I added in the www and it was great. http://www.majesticturbodallas.com

 

cool glad i could help .... hes a nice guy ... and seems to know his stuff and very easy to talk to ... and dont seem to mind explainin something if you have a question .... good ppl

 

sizing depends on application. i can also help. i have a customers twin turbo 460 in the shop right now for a fuel system upgrade and rebuilt turbos...should make around 600hp@5500 on 6#.

 

Thanks DA. Seems I might be able to make better HP/torque on a SBC 350 with twin turbos than on the BB Ford. I'll be dropping whatever into a jet boat.

 

Call Alamo Autosports in Arlington TX and ask for Brice Yingling, he's the owner and really knows his stuff. He can set you up with anything you want on a turbo charged setup. He setup my turbo stuff and the waste gates as well as the greddy controller. his # 1-817-860-4300. Tell him that his jetboating buddy from Okla. [Hass] sent you. He's the most knowledgable guy I've ever spoken with when it comes to a turbocharged application.

 

Well, with all the contacts and information given here, I should be able to get a great set up. How do turbocharged engines stack up to engines with blowers?

 

If you search around the forum you will most likely find all the info you need.
If you can't find it call any of the folks on the Sponsor list above in the forum header.

x-71 Blower = Giant air heater
Turbo = Hp + Fun

Efi or Carb both work in Blowthrus. The key is matching the part correctly.

Good Luck!

Gary,
On that right side header it looks like you could clock the turbine housing around and take about a foot of piping out of the header.
The T6 flange would be about level then.

 

If I did that it would make that turbo set out farther there both even so if you come up behind the boat both exaust pipes look the same
