I have rounded up a couple of l6s a 230 & 250 with manifold on the head. I have a play truck an 86 Swb c10. I will not be a daily driver I don't race I just play. So let me tell you what I got on my mind.
The 250 was running but I am going to freshin it up New bearing,rings, springs & maybe lifters. Then attempt a draw thru with stock 2 barrel rochester with a cheap t3/t4 turbo of eBay
I know don't cheap out right! Hey it's an experiment. My goal is only about 6-8 psi and I understand that the turbo may need carbon seals correct? Bet I could install carbon seals myself if I can find the right sizes. Are carbon seals need at boost below 10 psi? I am a diesel tech by day and a piddler on the wknd
