Ever wonder how a 91mm would fit in a 94 Camaro ? Pics inside.

Some of you have been asking about winter projects. My buddy Jay would like to share some pics of his 94 Camaro 91mm Single Turbo SBC project. This is my first time posting picture links, so you will have to cut me some slack.

His current plans are for a SBC bowtie block, 91mm thumper, Power Glide and a 9 inch rear. It should displace somewhere around 387 cubic inches with 5.7" rods. Jay is shooting for roughly 1000 RWHP.

After the cage is complete, he will probably start working the 9 inch installation.

Last I knew, Jay was going by "Bracket Boy" on this board. I think its looking good ! Let him know what you think.

Have a good one.

Brad

holy cats batman that gona be tite:bow:

Oh my goodness!

Hes has a hole house in his trunk! :bow:

Damn that turbo takes up a lot of room. LOL

Backhalf project eh?

Loooking good! :)

Dam that is quite a setup :)

JEEZUS....That Tubro is Freakin Huge :bow:

SCHA--WEET!!

Holy s**t:eek:

so this is gonna be a daily driver right?

Thanks just plain crazy.:bow: :bow: :bow:

Brad,

Where is this beast located?
I see you are in the Wichita area.

Stop on by at ksfba.org and let us know more about this monster. :D

YOUR A SICK MAN:p Very nice!:bow: 91mm:metal:

I thought my turbo system was tight.... That turbo is taking up tons of room in there. Chromoly or mild steel cage? Looks almost like mild.

Should be a wild ride
Steven

(jaw hits the floor) Dayum! That turbo is freakin' HUGE!!! :D

Mike

yes that would be an enourmous turbo :eek:
thats just about as big as they come, 91mm, right?
theres a turbonetics 100mm and 1 or two others that large right? crazy

how much boost will that be pushing?

Unbelievable, thats awesome. Keep us posted on any updates. Btw clean engine bay:D

:eek:

Lots of work yet to do, but the great comments help with motivation. Thanks!!:) As for the question about the tubing it is all 4130. With all of the rules changes that may be coming if SFI and NHRA ever get it together, the funny car cage, x braces, rocker bars and the dash bar will probably be mandatory for cars going quicker than 8.50. Right now cars with the factory floor don't need the dash bar, rocker bars or x braced doors and can run up to 7.50. I am building with advice from a guy who works at NHRA on "proposed rule changes"
No, the car will not be a "daily driver", but it will be street legal and will be capable of making jaunts as far as 8 gallons of gas will take it!! LOL I am keeping the power windows, locks, tilt wheel, stock door panels and carpet. I want it to look as stock as it can less the mods I am doing. If everything goes right, and I can read a tape measure, LOL the throttle body and induction should fit under the swell of an SS hood.
The boost question is relative to the engine size. It should have no problem with 30 psi on a 387" engine if you wanted that much. That could make a mess of an engine in a hurry if it's not right. There are people out there making 1600+HP with this turbo. There are much larger turbo's though as a friend of mine has a BBC with a 106mm that made 1984hp on Young's dyno.
Hope I didn't miss anyone's question, and if I did shoot me another!!
Jay :)

Garrett makes a 140mm inducer compressor wheel.....they said it's good for almost 3000hp by itself

btw...kick ass ride

Zurbo - Jay is east of Wichita and west of Augusta.

I'm a little down on top end power, if you guys have another dyno day I'd like to come out.

I'll see if I can post some more pics a little later on.

Brad

All I have to say is :bow: :bow: that car will make some serious boost...keep us posted!

You should have put the turbo in the front bumper like thore sick PRO 5.0 cars.

:cool:

I love it and can't wait to see the finished product!!

Here are more pics of Jay's cage under construction.

Take care,

Brad

The turbo is not mounted as of yet.....the position in the pic is just to see if it would fit there. Believe me, I have been thinking about installing through the bumper cover. Once I finish the chassis I will think more about where it will be mounted. Thanks for all the kind words.
Take care.
J.:)

:bow:

:eek:

So did this thing ever get completed????

Man that is sick and the intake is killer too DAMMMNNNN!!!!

????:confused:

Bill

Trans96 and Outcast did either of you get my updated pics? Looked like they might have been a little on the big side for emailing so I thought I would ask.
Thanks
Jay

Looks like everyone in my neck of the woods got the turbo bug after I finished mine.
