a single Tial 50mm BOV will work fine.

Thanks for the compliments. The main setup is done and everything is now off to the coaters. Intercooler piping was just powder coated in black wrinkle. The intercooler tanks, intake manifold will also be done in black wrinkle. Turbine housings and header will be black ceramic coated and the downpipes will be ceramic coated silver.

Can you fit T3 header with a garret GT30R?
GT30R and GT35R are both T3 flanged. Contact me for pricing.

Looking great James! Will Joel be able to run filters on the turbos?
As is...no. We have discussed cutting down the inlets to 3" and then I can run a line from the rear turbo up to the front. That decision will be his. The problem on this Z is the lack of room to get a 4" hose from the rear turbo up to the front. The space between the front header and the wheel well is ~3.9".

Something I definitely considered. However, I have seen plenty of folks take this approach to the problem and not have any signs of trouble. The tabs are not welded directly to the panel. I first welded a 4"x4"x1/8" plate to the tunnel and then had the tabs welded to the plate. BTW, the front side of the 4"x4" plate is up against the old tranny mount and welded to it.

Nothing beats welding on your back!

I will send all of it off next week to be ceramic coated. The exhaust manifolds and turbine housings will be coated black and the downpipes will be coated silver for contrast. It will also utilize the fancy inconel heat shields on the turbine housings. It isn't even my car and I get excited!

Well, see thats the problem is I currently have an automatic, so that means i gotta go find a manual setup from the local junkyards or if anybody on here knows of one for cheap.
Can you post a pic of that auto tranny?
-
Awesome. Looks like more room to do a header for twins than there was to do the single on mine.

Maybe' date=' maybe not:) Both were a PITA:) BTW, any updated pics with the turbo coated and repolished?

Car is for sale

The only failures I have had was with the old tranny. Car kept getting slower, but now with the new powerglide it runs consistent mid 10s @134mph.

Just did this to see if they fit. I will be fabricating a 321SS top mount setup for Joel. It does fit even with the a/c in place.

"Spring"...
You can add an M6 Flat Washer under the stock Turbo spring (actually several) and get the same effect as the Comp Springset.
I believe they sourced the springset for the "comp" pump from the Diesel L engine...
But M6 Flat Washers have a nice effect on the oil pressure. You can actually tailor the pressure where you want starting low' date=' and working up to it one Washer at a time...
You only really need 10 psi per 1000 rpm... But sometimes conditions warrant more.[/quote']
It is a dual spring setup. I have it in my toolbox.
-
Three pumps in ascending flow order.
Non turbo pump
Turbo manual pump
Turbo automatic pump
The comp pump is just the turbo pump with a spring. Just run the stock turbo pump and that will be sufficient for your application.

I only had to buy him breakfast to get him to say all of that

First step is to ge the intake and intecooler finalized. I already have the intercooler mounted and will have the intake done by weeks end. I will next tackle the challenge of the twin GT25R turbos. The manifold will be another one off 321SS header with double slip merge collectors. BTW, my new RB26 sure looks good on the engine stand
Thanks JOEL
-
Look foward to seeing what you'll be fabricating for the RB engine. Bet you have the engine on the stand right now sizing up some SS tubes that will be flowing you into the 9's
Best of luck selling your engine setup' date=' it's quite a piece of craftsmanship.[/quote']
Actually, Joel is in Mobile tonight and will not arrive until the morning. I had to promise I would finish his car 1st before starting on mine. However, that didn't stop me from ordering my JE forged pistons. I am going to run dual plenums on this setup following the Helmholtz(sp
) resonator design. That means to plenums each with 3 cylinders. The 1st 3 cylinders will angle down 30deg off the manifold and into the plenum. With velocity stacks of course. The 2nd 3 cylinders will angle up 30deg off the manifold and into the plenum. -
Don't buy a ridiculously overpriced RB setup that only gets you low 11's when you can buy an L28 Twin turbo that runs 10.6@134 for cheaper. Comes with complete motor/Electromotive fuel managment/piping/intercooler/radiator and best of all it has an oil pan and motor mounts.
Motor is ready to run and priced to move. -
If you are serious then that is something that I am willing to do
Bye Bye KA

350hp n/a on the KA motor. Call Rebello and ask them what they are getting. From my understanding they are also getting in the 350hp range. My understanding was the rod:stroke ratio on the KA was 1.72:1. Why is that bad for revs? It is a better ratio than the KA

Any reason not to bid on this turbo?

Correct,
All turbochargers that I sell are new using only new Garrett parts.
