add a cheap bilge blower in your air intake tube. Switch it on when racing and it will add 10-30 horsepower for a couple of seconds.
really? That is a dumb idea. and a gimic... a typical sbc could move 500 to 600 cfm, that's a lot of air. do you really think that a little electric fan could increase the pressure that much? And if you did end up racing with that setup, you would get laughed out. I think you should clarify what you mean by "home made".
usually around 1200-1300 rpm
As long as it has the Chevy bolt pattern, yes.
about 3,500 GVW
The "small block" Chev engine is a popular engine swap for this car. As to the twin turbo that is going to be a large amount of work but completely doable.
Yes, as long as the transmission has the Chevy bolt pattern.
Yes, if they were built with the standard Chevy bolt pattern.
Darn near anything can be made to accept a small block Chevy. The easiest conversions would be to select a vehicle that was offered from the factory with a v8 Chevy engine. Try a 1974 Toyota Landcruiser AKA > "Chevota"
In a word, yes. It should bolt right up with no problems.
Yes. It should bolt right in.
A Chevy turbo 400 will bolt up to a Chevy 400 engine just fine. A BOP (Buick, Olds, Pontiac) turbo 400 will not bolt up to a Chevy engine. The bellhousing is different between the Chevy turbo 400 case and the BOP turbo 400 case. Another option is a J-W Performance ultrabell which can be used with a Chevy or a Buick, Olds, Pontiac engine, but this requires the transmission case to be modified in order to use it (The original bellhousing must be cut off and the case prepped, then the ultrabell bolts on with the front pump bolts).
Yes a turbo block and the na block are the same except for a small oil thing. Everything else is the exact same, just different internals
Yes. Any Short Block Chevy will fit.
