Turbo Meister Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Does anyone, besides myself, have a twin turbo 383 Chevy in a 240 Z? I showed the car at the 2003 West Coast Nationals and have been drag racing it at LACR, Fontana, Irwindale and Sacramento Raceway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bastaad525 Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 *jaw hitting the floor* That is quite possibly one of the most awesome things I've ever seen done with a Z.... VERY nice, VERY impressive, and very beautiful... damn *picks jaw up off the floor* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V8ZRACER260Z Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 I do not have a twin turbo V8 yet, but I am putting in a tube frame and 85 vette front & rear suspension to handle a 427 SBC twin turbo. Nice to see someone else with a similar passion for a super fast Z. My chassis should be complete by next summer. I plan on putting back in my NA 377 SBC to sort out the chassis, while I'm building the turbo engine. I'm hoping to have all done by the following summer. Rick PS Very nice car!!!

Drax240z Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Wow, exceptionally clean install. Very nice indeed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 OK - OK Even more pressure to put the Procharger on the 280Z28. But then I'd need a new rear end, another transmission,........ On second thought.. Really sweet ride!! And the best part is the gray hair. Don't have to be young to have fun!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote'] Rick, Thanks for the comments. I have one bit of advice when you install your TTSBC. Make sure your rear suspension can handle it because the turbos create so much torque.

Turbo Meister Posted November 7, 2003 Author Share Posted November 7, 2003 Awesome car and WELCOME. That's what I wish mine would look like if I was willing to spend the money. Scottie.

Turbo Meister Posted November 7, 2003 Author Share Posted November 7, 2003 I've seen the pictures before, right after the show. Very nice car. What sort of carburation are you running? Nathan. Thanks for the comments. I'm using a Holley 750 DP. I modified the carb and built the pressurized carb box, myself. By the way, your Z's E.T. is pretty good for a mile high turbo 2.8L.
