RE: turboomg a carbed 289
77stang is right. Or you can build one yourself. They really are very easy. 5spd are fun some times too. But trans brakes at a good thing too. You really don't need the 5 spd as bad like if you had a blower. Just run a set of 3.25's, and 80 is about 3k. It's about the same as a blower car with a 5spd.
PSI is only a measurement of restriction. 10 psi on a stock motor will not make as much as heads and a cam with the same psi. Power and detonation will kill the block. Look to keep it around 450-500whp.500 is pushing your luck though.

know this is my old thread but just updatin my old school brethren! the 65s been in the shop, im re-doing the entire suspension, mounted the gauges on the dash, theyre in the process of peice together the "kit" using my turbo, intercooler, BOV, and wastegate. im using JBA titanium shorty headers and from there they are fabing mounts, up pipe, and down pipe. the turbo will mount right behind the stock battery location and i will be able to keep my AC and heat and radio...a fully daily driven streetable turboed classic...im so excited!! the shop thats doing all the work is HPP here in dallas, ive been away for a while focusing on the 07 (hence the dyno sheet in my sig) but now all my time and money is goin back into the 65. im also having a custom grind cam mad, new rear end (still contemplating gear ratio) and a posi unit out back. its startin to come together and im gettin REALLY excited so i thought id share! I'll have a few pics up in the next week or so of the gauges and what not. until then heres a link to the headers, mmmmm aint they pretty?
