Need some pics as I'm about to buy some tubing and get to work on ours.

The more ideas the better

72 nova: did you build those or buy them?

here you go

not the current setup but close

Here's my little ol' 327 (beat with 80K+) holding up the turbo headers and T76's, nice fitment and low-slung with tons of room everywhere. Keep plug access in mind when you build your set, as well as valvecover removal and A-Arm proximity. Good luck!

1972 Nova.... they would drop right in, this system was designed for the '67-69 Camaro so they would be swimming in that engine bay! I'm an authorized seller for Wrenchrat Inc. Twin Turbo systems, we can set you up with either the hot-side only or a complete Twin Turbo system ready to bolt on (countless options).

thanks for the pics im getting good ideas.

where to buy the tubing flanges and collectors at good prices? (mildsteel)

were putting turbonetics 62mm on our luv truck it came 4 cylinder and is already space limited

Have a half inch between water pump and radiator fans

 

[il_wolf_li]

Opps, misread that other post.

If you go mild steel look into getting them ceramic coated to keep the engine bay temp down. Look into some 321 or 304 stainless if your budget allows for it.

4rsfed: where did you get the v band flanges like that?

 

[stormingrey luv]

[72nova434]

Vbands like what?


It goes header => collector => reducer => vbands

Nothing special.
Lots of vendors here that can supply you with good quality vbands
TubingJon, Wheelie, RacePartsSolution are just some come to mind.

thanks.

did u put the header tubing inside the flange at the head or does it go on the outside and just weld around.

sorry for all the retarted questions.

not a retarded question at all.

The Mild Steel headers were just used for test fitting so the exact fit was not really cared about.
For those I put the round tube inside of the square flange.

For the Stainless Steel headers it was a round flange with round tubing, so the tubing sits on top of the header flange and was welded to it on the outside and on the inside of the flange if that makes any sense.

Ask away, it would be retarded to spend money and wasting it because you didn't ask a question.

 

[HAULIN' IT]

Here's a few pic's of a set I made...they are very similar to the ones "turbo" posted. I have other pictures during the build if they would help...just ask! Lorne

 

[stormingrey luv]

Those look good where did u buy the pipe and flanges?


What size tubing should I use?

Gonna have two 62mm turbonetics

I was thinking 1 5/8 to 2.5 collector and I'm gonna mount the turbo directly off the header..

Will I need to support it? Or the header will

 

[turbo chicken]

You can't support the weight of the turbo with a thin wall manifold. You will need to brace the turbo flange off the block somewhere
