Sit there idling then just mash gas pedal to floor (dont give it any gas at all before stabbing gas pedal) this is where accelerator pump jets and progression holes work together to accelerate without pre pumping gas pedal. You can check progression circuilt in 5 seconds....unscrew brass cap by a/f mixture screws.

, seriously Thinking about swapping the 1915 to 2276
That would be sweet! Your turbo should work great on 2276. By the way nice trade.

Thanks

Mater of fact,, that Turbo was on a 2276 when I got it,That and a predator carb

,unfortunately Whoever built it used stock rods

and probably weaken them when balancing them?, or the bolt let go,

, has a hole in the block big as ur fist

(should of used 'Good' H-Beams on a turbo build) didn't hurt the heads or crank
I'm in the middle of the trans build for it now,, searching for a 'Corse' tooth 'splined 0.93 and a IRS good super diff

Was going with cooling/charging but didn't want a Generator

,then the nice RLR breather was in the way

to relocate the hose were to short
throttle cable issues,,,always something

,I ended up removing all of it

Had a stupid oil leak,, grrrr,, thought it was just a cylinder base leak or the P.R. tube?
Nope, cracked cylinder on #2

with only 10lbs of boost

doubt it was that. probably my old eye's and grabbed the wrong box of cylinders when I built it?changed out the 42x37.5's 044's for the 40x35 semi hemi heads to lower cr. just for shits&giggles,will see how this works ,, but now I can crank up the boost pass 10lbs
Installed a cooling/charging system 'Alt.',,so I can cruise when I plate it
now to relocate the throttle cable(could use one of those little roller tube thingie to go threw the shroud

)quite an angle going up
new lines to the RLR breather(i used a OEM non Doghouse shroud to clear it)I can always add a aux cooler

I used an outer bikcycle-brake cable. The empi woven throttle cable slides right in it. i took the extra long one so room enough to route it.

Hey Rube,I did use a Motor cycle inner cable and its' plastic coated(outer is Stainless Steel) , but now i'm swapping for a non coated because it's going to get to hot near the header and turbo and I don't need a sticky throttle cable

I'm getting ready to set the timing in this pic,Thanks,madmike
