GBotM May '16 Entries - "Power Adders"

[GP403]

speedkills80 came up with the theme for May, being "power adders"... So if your car goes fast with the help of something besides a regular carb or stock FI, post it here. We're talking turbo/superchargers, nitrous, dual quads or tripower, leafblowers, etc. Stock turbo cars? Yeah I guess, why not! The more the merrier, right?

Sorry I didn't post this sooner! I was just going through stuff and was like CRAP its the 17th already?! Did I post that? NO? CRAP!

Let's see em! I will close this at a date TBD, since I was a lazy POS and didn't post it on time.

One day the twin turbo 442c.i. SB Olds will be done for my '88 H/O, right now it's a pile of parts... lol

I guess I qualify even though I am building a new big block but this is my current set up which I am still driving with my 565 Big Block Chevy featuring a Zex perimeter plate nitrous system capable of adding 300+ horsepower and the engines major components as follows:
Merlin 9.8 deck Race Block at 4.60 bore
Callies 4.25 stroke crankshaft
Wiseco 10.9 forged pistons with Total Seal Gapless rings
Eagle 6.535 rods with L19 bolts
Custom Cam Motion solid roller cam with Crower Severe Duty lifters with high pressure oiling
AFR CNC 335 heads with all Manley components and Comp stainless roller rockers
Quickfuel 1150 on an Edelbrock Super Victor Intake.

86 GP, 12hp briggs and stratton power adder.


But really, 6.0 with a GT500 m122 blower.

Turned into an Alcoholic - It's a lot cheaper than running race fuel and made the car very consistent and now I worry about building heat instead of running hot in later rounds. Picked up .3 in the 1/4 (little over 30hp) . The engine is a stock 350 short block (L-82) w/ iron 2.02 chevy heads, Comps 306s flat tappet cam, Vic Jr w/ a 750 APD alcohol cab and runs an impressive 11.20's in the 1/4. Oh yea , my flat hood cowl system helped too.

Well, I have my turbo 6, with a bit of nitrous and some alky to help. Though, the car as you all know is not done.
