View Full Version : TURBO 345 part 1 exhaust (PICS)

Well I started fabing up an eaxaust crossover up to my turbo and haveing one that dosent hang down is tricky so I garbed some pipe 2 1/4" and went at it. I found that if I flip the exhaust manafold over and spaced it at about 3/4" it left clearance for spark plug removal. I'm having a exhaust manafold spacer made. So this is how fare I'v made it.

So far, so good. What turbo are you using there, and what is the a/r ratio and trim of the housings? Do you plan to blow through a carb or draw through one, or go FI, or what? Tell me more about your plans...
EDIT: ...and where'd you stick your alternator, is it still under the air conditioning compressor platform thinggy? :flipoff2:

Chief, I am glad you are doing this build up I have been toying with this idea for a while. I have an old draw through turbo from a chevy that is pretty simple. But I am anxious to see someone do this . Thanks for innovating on the Scout front:D. Could you possibly get another one of those spacers made up?

I think I read somewhere that the offset is something like 3/4 inch, is that right?
its 1/4" witch I dident notice till it was too late, so I going to split the difrance between the manafold and the spacer so its 1/8 on each, and see how it works, its a little small on the mating surfaces, so if it becomes problematic with leakage i'll have another spacer with the 1/4 taken into acout.
Could you possibly get another one of those spacers made up? yeah but I'm going to redesing it, the prototype is a lemon
I just took this to a budies machen shop, sory colent find the file so I took a pic of the the autocad drwing

The manifolds have to be shifted forward and up as well. I really don't see the basis for building a spacer. What I did was have my machine shop weld up all the bolt holes then redrill it upside down using an exhaust gasket laying on the surface the way it will be bolted back on. I've about got my twin turbo 392 ready. I used a Banks twin turbo kit from a Chevy. It was made back in the 80's. It has a big polished air hood.

That looks sweet. I have an old turbo that i took off of an old Detroit 60. It is huge, im still trying to find out what the hell it is. I am planning on using it, but was wanting to place it in between the firewall and motor. Im working on an adapter like yours but with no manifold, just 4 90 degree pieces of pipe welded to the adapter and they will all converge together and go into the turbo. Or something of that matter:D

For forced induction I only bother with the exhaust side, unless theres some BIG humps etc in the intake side.
a better port will reduce pumping losses, that is it.
the piston will displace any residual exhaust.
there just isnt too much to the exhaust side of a 4 stroke engine.

Bindernut
11-09-2005, 11:50 AM
:shaking: pumping losses is different from volumetric efficiency how?
Bob,
They are different in that pumping losses refers to horsepower debited from the crankshaft, used to force the exhaust out through the piss-poor flowing *stock* IH head's exhaust ports. Volumetric efficiency, as you know, is related to the intake side, and refers to the density ratio between the air that gets sucked into the cylinder before the intake valve closes and the ambient, outside air density.
You've made your point, though. Even though you can force feed it, it *does* still cost power to have poor flow characteristics - it's just that it is easy to make up for it with boost. <shrug> :cool:

Hanvent done to much latly, been bussy
What I have done is the oiling both suply and dranage, The turbos mounted and all the pre turbo ehxaust is finished I fired up the engine and reved it to about 2000rpm for a few seconds (no rad yet) snd I could not keep my hand over the compressor exhaust so it seems to be working.

Chief,
I think the idea is to plumb it so that both the mixer and vaporizer think the pressure of the whole world is whatever pressure is inside that air bonnet. That way, the mixture will become enriched under boost, which should stop that irritating stalling thing it's doing. I don't know enough to know whether the ports to which you pointed in the picture are the correct hookups, but if you know what you are trying to accomplish, maybe you can figure it out with that information? Any hole in either of those pieces that is open to the outside air needs to be connected (with a hose) to the big aluminum hat on top of the mixer. Maybe you could bring one line off the hat and t it off to the other two hookups? I don't know, just trying to help out based on what I have read other people have done.

04-06-2006, 11:53 PM
So>>> How Does It Work?!?!?!
its a type of presure relefe
when your got the pedel to the floor and turbos just screming along making tons of boost and you just abruply let off the gas your throttle plates close but the turbos still making boost but now that compresed air has no where to go so it becomes eaven more compresed and it can damage the turbo and other parts, so what the BOV valve does is it lets the compreses air charge out into the atmosphere. It works just off manafold vacume, as soon as your throttle plates shut you get a high spike of manafold vacume and this pulles the valve open for a sort time just enough to releve the presure.
you ever hear a turboed ricer car drive buy that has a loud PHISSSST sound each time it shifts gears (standard)... thats the blow off valve working.

yeah I cant wate to see what boost levels I get on the road,
if there not enough boost this shure looks tempting
from banks
http://www.bankspower.com/product_images/CQT01_QuickTurbo.jpg
Quick-Turbo assembly
Banks developed the Quick-Turbo in conjunction with the Holset turbocharger and Cummins Engine companies, to eliminate sluggishness "out of the hole" and produce strong acceleration. Quick-Turbo produces massive torque right from idle, achieves a higher peak faster, maintains more boost through the powerband, and doesn't over-boost. Banks' exclusive BigHead wastegate actuator prevents "wastegate blow-open" by keeping the valve seated at higher pressures, increasing mid-range torque and top-end power.
canaminal have any pics of that 700r4 swap and what did you get for adapters and where?

Now you just need to get rid of that rediculously puny little reservoir on the hydroboost. I mean it's not like you don't have room for a regular size reservoir instead of that little chopped top version meant to fit under a short slanting van hood. You can get a medium sized reservoir off of an S-10 or you can go huge and get a large reservoir off of a full-sized truck. I opted for the full-size version that holds a LOT of fluid since there is more than enough room for it on an SII.

Depending on the length of the push rod coming out of the hydroboost you may be able to directly bolt on a Scout II master cylinder. Thats what I did on mine.

Thanks for posting those pics Jeff. Mine looks just like that(except its silver and has a d300 on tail) took 5-8 days from paypal to my place ,only thing I did different is got longer bolts through the alumn disc and backed up the alumn. threads with shouldered nuts as the 392 kept loosening the bolts(pulling the threads out of the alumn?) I could have used less rpm from TC.
I wondered how the brakes held 3/4 throttle without vac. , COOL i want to do hydraboost next. I need more brakes badly!
Working on a SS & binder inspection cover as I work in a SS fab shop, guess I'll have to put a couple of pennies in so I can post pics.
Long term plan is 304 turbo propane for dirt SII and 6.2 smelly for Highway(traveler)

today I got the filter all figured out, cut some inner fender for more room and clearance from the turbo, plus I'm going to add a heat shild. and cut a hole into the inerfender behind the grill to help with cooler airflow to the filter

[QUOTE=canaminal].Also a pair of 13"x 31" QUOTE]
is that a manafold tank (2 13s" put together) or 2 sepret 13" tanks? cuz I alwys thought a small torpedo tank infront of the axel would make a good reserve and a 13 might just fit (probibly a little more forward then the circle

I thought that would be a good place for an air tank. For propane... I'd get some driveshaft hoops just in case.

Is that a hx-35 or a hx-55 turbo? a heat shield will be good, other wise 1600* heat might just melt that K&N.......lol

2x13" x31" manifold. its to big for under. but it will fit behind pass seat and filler will reach org loc. I'm not useing it so if you want to play with for a couple of weeks , no sweat!
I have a 26" long 2x13 in the org gas tank location in mine, with the 2" body lift its almost perfect.I'll get my dues pd so I can post pics here as soon as the rad's for my KTM are paid for(off my CC) but that'll be monthend.
I still think about a 10"x48" torpedo inside the frame rail pass or 10x60 drivers side as second tank.

At 1600* the turbo would melt. I doubt he'll get anywhere close to 1000*

Looks like your almost ready for the road when you get tanks. I want to see it some time, I go through New West all the time. Have you looked at getting a new tank so you have auto shut off etc.? seems that Ontario is the canadian source, I have the manufacturer somewhere in this PC I'll find it if you want it.
I would like to do a couple of passes to see how much harded yours pulls, 304-345 turbo has been in my brain for a long time.
Do you know what it's cost?

I thought the auto shut off was standarderd after 94, the propane guy sells tanks with auto shutoffs, I thinking about widening the back end of the frame to fit a lager more comen size tank. Yea thers a few ting left i have have to add seats and other small things. What part on new west do you go threw? anyway im by Marene Dr by the jewish cemitary (trapp & fwewick) if your in the hood. feel free to drop by, and whene its on the road you can have have as meany passes as you like, hell will find the steepest hill in the area. hmmm royal oak :eek: :laughing:
as for cost id say easly under $1000.oo the turbo was the most expenice part and i got it for 260 and its just all the nickle and dime things, tubing J bends the oil cooler and plumbing and carb bonnet ect
