Title: SBC TURBO TRUCK LIVES
Post by: Cadracer on August 25, 2009, 02:00:16 AM
 ;D Wow its been awhile but its has a new life between the fenders.   Its a Highly modified vortec 305 with a alumin high rise open plenum manifold and pretty good size roller hyd cam. Tried the t56 monster turbo but it couldnt spool it at idle to 2k  and the carb was choking. So out came the tried and true t4 and now it idles  due to it has air.Have a few more minor things to hook up  but tonights test drive was fun. Laid a small 2 solid stripes for about 150ft and that was only on 3 psi boost.
 Built the engine to ingest 20 psi of boost and i feel it sounds better than the 350 previously that was in it. Got pics i need to upload and need to get some video footage rolling.

I miss the boosted SBC  Just letting everyone know im still alive and the v8 turbo setup is still alive.   520 cubbes of caddy twin turbo is gonna be scarry

Drove it tonight with some boost and 10 psi feels good. Spiked it to 15 and the tires ripped loose in second doing 45 on accel. I think 20 psi is make it a fun truck to drive. May even go 25 psi

;D Wow its been awhile but its has a new life between the fenders.   Its a Highly modified vortec 305 with a alumin high rise open plenum manifold and pretty good size roller hyd cam.

what fuel pump and regulator are you using?
Title: Re: SBC TURBO TRUCK LIVES
Post by: Cadracer on August 27, 2009, 03:49:35 AM
what fuel pump and regulator are you using?
I am running the holley electric blue pump with a mallory vacum  return regulator running into a 12.1 fmu.
I have a duel isolator so i can monitor fuel pressure from the drivers seat. I also need to get the wideband installed so i can see how much tuning i need to do with the boost above the 15 psi threshold. ;D I got my secret weapon for fuel control  that way i can still run the mild carb setup. :o I will have some road time videos this weekend after i get tabs. Might even throw on my m/t wrinkle walls and see if they got any bite left in them.

 :o got some freeway time on the motor. The blow off is extremely loud and it boost 10 psi quickly.  15psi and the gates opening up. Need to get the wide ban on it to see the fuel. I know its a lil rich on the part throttle it blubbers a bit but rolls on through it with ease. The carb was setup for the 350 that was in it running 6psi till i melted pistons.The creator hasnt had his ass dyno in it so gonna show him this week and we will see what it does.

While it scares me that you don't have a wideband on it and you're boosting on the motor, if she's so rich she runs rough part throttle you are probably jetted super rich and she's safe to raw dog on IF your ignition timing isn't way off.  Pull some plugs, and look at the piston surface.  The pistons should have a nice coat of soot/carbon on them if it's that rich, if you have tiny pinholes in that carbon/soot pattern that you can see shiny piston through then you have an issue with timing.  If there's no carbon trail or soot (the piston doesn't have to be completely covered by carbon, I am just ASSuming yours will be from your description) and you see the shiny bits on the piston then you probably have a timing and fuel problem.  Timing super retarded can make a rich mixture seem super lean, as far as reading the piston goes, and lead to those detonation marks.

OK, can I get a fucking vid of the truck now?   O0

Post by: Cadracer on September 02, 2009, 04:32:33 PM
Its ok i understand what your saying. I have had the sbc boost in there for awhile but it was a 350  11.1 an i had it dialed in on fuel map all the way through full booost. I did post a vid of it  but no road videos due to  i need a passenger to take as i rip it like when Dave went with me and we trolled everett for some fun. I do have a btm and i pull 2 degrees per pound of boost out now and i have a fmu plummed inline so i feel safe on the fuel. Plus im not really ripping on it just getting some mild street time on it to see how it drives. ;D
Gonna mount a camera just to video as i drive to get the effect of what it sounds like when you ripp it. Love the sound of a sbc singing the 6500  notes.
Title: Re: SBC TURBO TRUCK LIVES
Post by: Cadracer on September 19, 2009, 03:45:25 AM
 ;D What a night  took the truck out to the track to get some shake down time. Only 1/8th mile but it was run what you brung and you line em up and race anyone.

The truck ran flawless on 8 psi and due to the weak ass street tires i had traction issues but man did i run many of people down at the top end. I love a 6500 rpm screaming small block With boost. :o

No video because  had no one to video it out there. Gonna hook up a tripod inside and mount my camera for constant in car action.

Even with the vht down on the track it didnt  hook.  I did even a better smake show than when we did the 5 wide burnout. 3/4 track tire fry

Gonna get the M/T 33-10.50  drag tires mounted for the next meet in 2 weeks.

60', ET, traps.
Title: Re: SBC TURBO TRUCK LIVES
Post by: Cadracer on September 19, 2009, 01:23:30 PM
The setup for timing control doesnt do trap speed. But the reaction time needs lots of work but due to tire slipage there spinning when i just load them slightlly with 2 psi boost at the line.
my best run was  a
 1.287              reaction
 2.430              60 ft
 8.270              1/8th

Even with a .555 reaction   still had a 2.381 60ft and pulled off a 8.202 time.

Its all in the traction  and thats why i like the 1/8 mile racing. If you got the power and you can hook it you will be fast. test and tune on the 1/8th mile track 20 minutes from my house so when i do venture to the 1 hr  drive to the  1/4 mile  strip i will have the shake down and traction all figured out.An hopefully do some nice times.

Then this is all on 6psi remember. The motor when built was put together to hold up to 20 psi so with my electronic dual stage boost controller  this should  pull some pretty good track times. Motors loves to rpms and pulls hard all the way up to 6500

The guy i was racing  had a 72 camaro that would just launch.  He had M/T et drags with screwed beads and running 11 psi and  no traction issues. His 60ft times  was a 1.803 and he ran a 7.203   Track record is like 5.800
I just love it though the guys i  will be lining up with have trailers that bring the cars out. I just drive  mine  thats how versital i make them. I can use it to haul the garbage to the dump. LOL  ;D

I had this other guy eye me as i came in and then he came over and wanted to line up see how we would do together. Well he took me out of the hole but by half track i drove by him like he was doing 30 mph,  afterwords he came up to me  over at the staging lanes and wanted to see what i had. I told him its just a lil  warmed over 305  ;D   He face was  :o kidding right.
Seems he had a warmed over 454 that he had put together that he was really proud of how it went.  That was all worth the build of the 305 :noel:

The 305 is just a small bore 350 built for fuel economy                         same crank
 The 307 is the earlier version of  the 305 but its just a small bore 327   same crank

as for the 301 pontiac built that no chevy  and for the 302 that was built for the trans am race circuit to deal with fords Boss 302   It was a high reving factory muscle car motor. Why are the a sought after motor now?

Well  i do have a different set of tires for the caddy engine so the 60 ft times can be down in the 1.2 and better due to a 18in wide drag  tire.I got a couple tires from a sprint car they used them on the dirt.This is a very soft compound tire gonna see about getting some rims to get them mounted up and try them out.

never dealt with anything but a bored to fuck and back 350

whats your point?

The point is that you don't have a clue what you are talking about.

The 302 chevy small block was a damn fine motor.

You have to drive one and experience it to appreciate it.

The 305 sounds close when we run it to 6500

Just watch my old video when Dave  video when we took a trip in the turbo truck  with the 350 in it. I feel the 305 sounds meaner  and way deeper tone

I am seriously thinking about a TT SBC 350 on propane


because as far as I know I could run a vacuum hose from my mixer to a v-manifold block and then throw some vacuum lines to the compressor housings and then a line to the carb(its a diaphram so I assume it runs off vacuum)

I need to talk to a propane turbo guy, I know nothing about this kinda shit.

Ok so i have the new tires mounted up, thanks to the creator for letting me use the tire machine at his work. Here are some pics of the  et drag slicks that hopefully will hook good. Jeff does think the 305 has enough balls to do a smokey burn out. Hmm gonna see if the dont then that just means i dont have to worry about traction and the better look out the rhmt truck is coming kick ass and take the trophy.

A while back Rob Kinnan at Hot Rod built a modern 302 Using a Caprice LT1 2 Bolt 350  and one of the 267's that also came in caprices... I need to track down that article.

this thread makes me wanna turbo my 79 425 Caddy....

Post by: Cadracer on October 02, 2009, 01:35:24 AM
The 425 are weak and restricted excesively in the valve and head flow. The best would to find a 472 and boost it. It will bolt right in and they love rpm way better than the 500`s do.I remeber that article where he built a 302 from the different engine stuff.

This is my 305 test motor, showing peeps that you can get power out of a 305.  :noel:  I like it  What do you think the 520cube caddy twin turbo setup gonna do?

yes yes, 305s and 307s get bad raps too much  :noel:

The 305 is just a small bore 350 built for fuel economy                         same crank
 The 307 is the earlier version of  the 305 but its just a small bore 327   same crank

as for the 301 pontiac built that no chevy  and for the 302 that was built for the trans am race circuit to deal with fords Boss 302   It was a high reving factory muscle car motor. Why are the a sought after motor now?



350= 3.48 stroke
307= 3.25 stoke
305= 3.48 stroke


307s aren't typically used for perf because of the stroke. However they can make big power at high rpms.

I read alot on how the mustang guys where doing it. I added a few things of my own that worked out excellent when i did the internal mods.
hangar18.com    and then a group on yahoo.   blowthrough group

I hope they will hold  ;D  I am sure they will its a 12bolt gm rear diff with solid core u joints. Aslo i have already stressed them when i put in a caddy engine and when and did a roundy round burnout so there tried tested true to hold up.

there is 4 major things you need to do, all things covered by word of mouth at a swap meet and you'll figure it out really fucking quick.  writeups are just nice to read and see how person A does what person B said


i know all the shit to do but he said he did different shit on his that is what i was looking for on there
Title: Re: SBC TURBO TRUCK LIVES
Post by: Cadracer on October 03, 2009, 03:48:27 AM
I havent did a detailed writeup on my mods. I took a combo of all the boards and people i talked to over a years time and then figured out what i wanted to do and how much of there info i needed to keep my motor alive. I have modified a few things because i felt that it would make a better  simpler setup and  yes i have proven it does work.If your looking for details ask me and i will let you know what i did on my setup in detail. As for parts they are all found on ebay cheap and or pull apart. Kept it real for the rhmt guy to build it.

Sunday i  will have in truck ripping footage and also  footage of some smokey burnouts.  Going to the track and see if my ET drag slicks can put the power to the ground. If not it will be fun to just run the truck to get some track time on it. Only got about  a month driving time on the setup been so busy with my boat stuff never got to get the truck finished  in street trim.
Need a wide band so anyone got one for sale  or know of a good one let me know.

Holy fuck, that thing will run mid-low 7's out of the box when you find traction, on street tires.

Ok so went to the track today and did great. Tried the big ole 33 et drags but fender lip clearance issue could use the tires.

 Installed the M/T 29-12.50  sportman pro drag street tires ran a 8.00
Then went and put on the 26-8-15

Ran a   
7.870
.650 rt
2.191 60ft
So i figured i would stay with those  due to smaller tire and the  taller tires  shook hard on the top end when i got off the throttle. I amm  thinking there done cuz there is a  slow leak in the tread surface possible broken cord or somthing.

Four more passes down the track and some awesome smokey burnouts and i am in the finals. Had the camer on the tripod in the truck but for some reaseon it didnt start videoing when i pushed the button. Could see the  video screen cus it was mounted behind the seat  next to the center of the rear window so as to have a good veiw of the boost gauge and dash and driver veiw going down the track.

Heres the results of the end of the day.

And that is on 6 pounds. Need to turn it up motor, can do 15 pounds already had it there when i didnt have the wasgate hooked up. :o  I  just need to make sure i got the fuel. I built the motort for 20 pounds
Will get some in truck footage soon.
Track offical loved my setup  last week i was running 8.2 this week 7.6  and he said im doing a slow tire roll at the start when i power brake it to spool the turbo and load the suspension. Need a trans brake and bigger tires .
