Classic Turbo Cars?

Who here has a Pre-73 turbo car (mustang in general)? I want Idea's for my project (65 Coupe). I want forced induction but turbo setups are still somewhat a mystery for me with the classic Fords.

Pic's are definitely welcome! Post 'em up!

I have a video of a 70 cougar 5.0 h/c/i with tremec 3550 and a t-61. I think I got it off of theturboforums.com

I don't have a classic but built a non classic.
So first, are you interested in staying carbed or going going to FI? You can build quite a nice simple carbed setup that makes great power.

I do plan on installing EFI on the motor, one for being able to tune everything via laptop (planning on MegaSquirt) and the car will be driven up until it snows (Cold starts get old fast...)

There's a guy on the turbo forums with a 67 (i think) coupe, blow through car that is very cool. It's a home made kit and I saw him run at norwalk a couple years ago. W based motor that went low 10's on the brake due to rules. I can't find the site he sent me, but i have pics i'll upload of it

Found it, it's a 68, not 67.





















Pretty simple build really being "logs" and all. He was laying down some awesome times

Simple and elegant. That is one reason not to rush into efi.

twofast, I love your setup. I have seen it before on Turbomustangs, and it is really what got me interested. How much time and effort was involved in making the headers?

thanks. a local guy did my headers, so it wasn't much effort for me at all. lol. i did make the merge, though. that takes the most time/effort by far.

Here is mine. 351w with a T-70 in the pics. New turbo is a S400 75mm 1.32ar turbine. The unibody is all stock, but will get frame connectors and a rollbar or maybe a cage this winter. Maybe even some traction bars! http://videos.streetfire.net/video/69410045_177035.htm
