Turbo 427 biscayne?

Hey everyone, a good friend of mine has a '65 Chevy Biscayne with a 427 in it. While shooting the s*** last night, we got talking about doing a twin turbo set up on his car. (Since he has a full dual exhaust). Has anyone seen anything like this before? Some of the logistics would be interesting to see. Was thinking of putting the turbo's down farther on the exhaust, past the collector's on the exhaust, running air intake from more around the side of the car, and run 2 small air to air intercoolers, (Maybe with a NOS fogger to cool the intercooler)

any thoughts, dreams, suggestions?

Thanks.

fueling?

So, because his car is carburated (sp?) what, if any are his options for fueling. Since you can't program the carb to deliver more fuel once the boost comes on. Alky system?

Best friend works at STS

They are currently producing some new things for cars with carbs. So look for them shortly. Supposedly you will not even need a blow through setup.

Their systems are absolutely awesome. You will not be disapointed.

Check out my buddies car, he mounted his turbos before the rear axle. Look closely at the pics to see what you can make out of the combo, pretty stealthy

Well if that ain't the slickest sleeper I've ever seen....

I absolutely LOVE the stock air cleaner grafted into it.

Twin Turbo

Go to bankspower.com he has everything you need plus it's a great site. He says he is the grandfather of the GN. He did a twin turbocharged setup for Buick an actual Pace Car for the Indinapolis 500 in the early 80's.. He had the fastest v6 turbocharged Syclone pickup a Bonneville Salt Flat truck that went 210mph. He's working /focusing on diesels now cause they run on DETONATION
