The reason I am showing the Turbo is to show what you can do on the cheap. I bought the rebuilt turbo along with a rebuilt q-jet for $135 dollars. The Carter carb was $200, the piece of material for the adapter was about $15. Exaust mods $25 in material.
On my Elco I have Langdon's headers, $200 with shipping. Another $200 at the exhaust shop building the duals. I paid $200 for the Offy manifold, and $135 for a new NIB Holley Webber 4 barrel carb. With the misc. parts I've probably got $800 in exhaust and intake compared to a cheap little turbo, a small safe little carb, that will nmake more power for half that. I could cut that price in half by using the Q-jet, but they are so ugly compared to the Carter.lol
