newbie with first turbo build carb choke question

[madmike]

all that power? what cam u running ?Head size?:lol: Just wait until ya 'taste the boost' only took about a day for me to turn it up
My RLR oil heated intake works great, helped cruising,more than anything,,,28 mpg I'd get better if i'd quit boosting ,, but that's not gonna happen

I'm inching closer! I need to figure out how to wire the black box to my streetfire box. I already locked my distributor. I also need to figure out the vacuum and boost lines with the carb and the wastegate. Then I need to learn how to setup or edit the tables in the black box. Oh yea, and fab the exhaust and dump pipe. Weld in bungs for IAT and O2 sensor. Also move coil. Get pump cover with drain. Figure out how I'm going to fab a workable accellerator cable (pulls toward firewall) and how it connects to the pedal. then reroute wires. closer, but only nice to look at. Lots left to do.

Oh yes... need a fuel pump, probably larger fuel line and a regulator.. I'm gonna cry now

Nice looking Motor!!!You might have to mount the carb a different way, fuel may slosh away from the jets, but try it u maybe ok, I got a cable from the 'Chassie Shop' up here in Mears Mi, it's called a 'Silver jacket' and is as smooth as butter a lil pricey but I figure it's worth it not to have a sticky throttle U may need to loose the fancy coil mount ,so you can make the 'T' intake make sure u weld some bungs on it for Gauges and wastgate stuff,,then U can pickup a fuelpump blockoff drain for the turbo ,JayCee is nice,bigger the better,,I was hoping to find a better photo for ya,I have my water/Meth injection line tapped into the intake(red hose) Cheers,Mike

Well stupid me. I was asked if I wanted the carb mounted left/right or front/rear when RAD made it for me. I looked at the carb and thought the bowl to the rear would be best. Never thought about which way the linkage would face. I admit I'm overwhelmed with all this. Alone with no experience it's a bit too much. I read as much as I can. It's taken 2 years to get to this point and every mistake is money and time wasted. I wanna drive it before I'm dead. LOL

I know I have to move the coil. I have the bungs for O2 and IAT. They will get welded with the exhaust and dump pipe. I can only mount the carb this way due to the rectangular base.

Yea, ya never know the carb might just work great, Try it,Cheers,Mike
