Turbo size for this setup I have a good friend that is building a 1970 Cuda. He is putting a new LSX block in it with a Turbo. He is building a 454ci motor and he is wanting 1300rwh. We are trying to find out what turbo to run. It will have a 4L80E in it. It will be running by the Power Tour because he and I will be taking our cars for long haul. He was going to build a new Hemi for it but he was so impressed with my setup and how it runs and all that he is putting a LS1 in it. He is really going to piss some folks off lol. :) |
Id say the new S91 or 95mm units... He has alot of cubes to work with...... |
i was thinking the same thing but na$ty-ta is the man that knows what he is talking about so listen to him and i would recommend checking his car out. |
at least a 91mm....with those cubes...prolly bigger |
I would think a 91 would be small for a 454. Go bigger on turbo or go down on engine size, it wont have any problem spooling it. |
Call the mfgr[s]???? |
No one have any idea?? |
With a 454" small block you're going to have a very short compression height, sounds like a recipie for broken pistons to me. IMHO do a big bore 427 or stock bore 402/408 with a pair of 67-70mm turbos. |
I was thinking probally at least the S95 and probally in the 100 range. |
I would go 100mm or so. :) |

Thumper? |
twin T76s! ;) you know you want to. Chris. |
don't want twins he wants one big single. |
S95 will do the job and spool nicely on that size engine. The compressor wheel we use is a new style now.....wheel flows 168 lbs/min. The old wheel flowed 151 lbs/min....so the 95mm will do the job. ;) |
Jose, I emailed you about a similar turbo question. Thanks :) |
Jim when did you e-mail me?? We have been down and I'm only on for a little while tonight. We are moving to our new facility and nothing is hooked up yet....argghh. I am having to take care of e-mails and phone calls sporadically. E-mail me again...I will get you an answer. |
Re-sending. No rush, whenever you get a chance. |

NO twins for now. Also if Jose would call my friend back he would have sold a turbo and other stuff by now. He called and left a message on his phone Tuesday. I wish Forced Induction would get there shit together. Makes you want to order somewhere else. :eyes: |
