LOL, at least you realized I was just teasing

congrats on your new toy jdubb!

 

Not my toy. A good friends truck I am building.
It is a 76 turbo, trying to make sure the cam is going to work in the new more before I slide it all together and start fabbing a front mount. It is going a a 400 inch stroker, gonna do the 4l80swap while everything is out. Meth injection, and LOTS of boost when we flip the switch.

 

Not trying to be negative here, but a 76 turbo + 400+CI motor doesn't equal "LOTS of boost". I guess the term LOTS is pretty vague though. Looking over compressor maps, the 76 turbo will be pretty small for that motor and run out of steam on the top end.

Look at some of parish8's old posts. I believe he made mid-600 rwhp with a T76 on a 408 motor. Then moved to a T88 turbo and was able to knock down 1000 rwhp. The 76 couldn't efficiently feed that large motor in the upper rpms, effectively limiting its peak HP potential.

 

yup, ran out of power at 640rwhp even with a better header and down pipe. but it spooled very quickly.
