Default Single turbo Setup

I am looking for the headers and cross over pipe to do a single turbo setup on a 434 in a 3rd gen camaro. This will be a blow through with a 750 dominator..

It's going to have to be a custom setup. i've never seen anyone that makes a kit.

how could you really say that? You have to buy two turbos, not one (the most expensive piece in a damn setup), two wastegates, spend more time troubleshooting any problems because now there is more parts for things to go wrong.


Twins are player tho... .lol

There are a few 3rd gen race cars with the stock front suspension and twins on both small and big block engines but they are all custom done.

You could fab up a kit if you're good at welding. Flip an old set of headers and get some pre-bent tubing, there are lot of places online that sell it. A big single would be cheaper and make similair power. Theres also plenty of places that sell manifolds, then would just have to make the crossover pipe and the rest of the hot side. Also look into s400s if you want to stay big single, theyre a fairly common turbo that can be found somewhat cheap.

Its in the works and slowly progressing. I want the SBC setup to fit as many platforms as possible which makes designing the setup interesting.

Are you going to do much of the work yourself? Who built the 434?
