| Post subject: | Turbo 198 |
I have a spare T03 turbocharger from my front GLH turbo and have decided to use it on my '74 198/904 Duster. I want to keep it simple and am thinking about using a draw through carb. I going to talk to a local turbo rebuild shop about seeing what my turbo needs for it to be used in a draw through application and go from there. Any thoughts about what kind of carburetor to use? or about the turbo size that I am using for my 198? My goal is not to make a race car but a dependable and quicker daily street car. Since boost was limited to about 9psi on the early T1 non-intercooled 2.2turbo cars, I want to keep it right about there for this application. Any thoughts welcomed!...nico |

If that turbo is from an early Turbo I car it's already set up for draw through as the throttle body on early TI cars is ahead of the turbo. I'd use a 350 Holley with an external power valve reference so the power valve gets it's signal from manifold pressure, not under-carb pressure. |

Yup, and the early T1 cars were also port fuel injected and the t-body and turbo were only managing air....I want to be sure it (the turbocharger) can handle fuel as well as air on this 198 project...thanks, nico |

The fuel shouldn't hurt anything. You've already got a face seal to handle vacuum rather than a dynamic seal. The fuel and oil will each stay where they belong. |
