PT-54 Hot Air Coversion

[m233roller]

I know this isn't the parts for sale forum but thought I'd get better results here. This is a complete PT-54 conversion that just came off my friends 84-GN. He's going all 87 intercooled. Manifolds are redone and are reinforced. Turbo is converted for a hot air car as is the throttle body. The delta gate is still on the car as you can see but will be included. The cold air inlet set up comes with it also. That's a custom built 3in. down pipe and all work was done by my good friend (Marty Stromberger of Tim's Hot Rods.) Turbo has less than 500 miles on a PTE rebuild. $1500 plus shipping for the complete set up. If interested please call the owner of this. His name is Rob and you can reach him at: 1-509-954-7733

Can you take a better pic of the headers Mike. I'd like to see what was done to them.

X2, they look like they were modified quite a bit. Looks like the collectors of the headers were extended down quite a bit, and the xover shortened also. Looks like a hell of a setup! I really like the inlet setup as well.

Mike, any info on how fast he went on this setup, or HP? Looks killer either way, and a nice price.

Charlie,
I'll try and get some more pics. for you but all that stuff is at Robs place (the owner) so it might be afew days. Rob never did get that set up to the track but ran hi 11's with a stock 87 turbo. Yes the price is right as I know Marty charged him $400 alone just to mod the throttle body and turbo. I think Rob spent around $400 to $450 for the turbo rebuild with the carbon seal.

They almost look like a set Lee made years ago. Just want to see for research of course. In the process of making mine now but designs can change sometimes.:biggrin:

Here's some better pics. of these modified headers and throttle body.

Thanks Mike. The passenger side looks a lot like a set Lee did some time ago. The waste gate is a dump?

 

[santiagoe82]

how much more power are you getting out of this setup?

 

[sully442]

Is this stuff still for sale?

 

[Jerryl]

That set-up is capable of 10 second non-intercooled power.

 

[m233roller]

Yes the complete conversion is still for sale.
