Wow... thanks fraso for the link!, and yes people do tend to blame the propane for poor performance, not the setup.

Oh, sorry the mixer my friend used was built by OHG, not impco. Apparantly, by using .055" washers, he spaced out the top cap on the mixer, just for the purpose of allowing more air to flow through. And yes, he adjusted the mixer to run very rich. For what reason, I don't know.

For this project, I plan to go start at 5lbs of boost and if all goes well, mabey 9-10lbs maximum. I haven't decided on the turbo yet, probably a garrett gt35r running through a stock SD intercooler.

My 351w features...
Eagle forged 4340 crank
Eagle "ESP" H beam rods
KB forged flat top pistons
9.5:1 compression
Stock, ported heads
"RV" Cam
Performer RPM air gap intake
MSD box, yada yada... the bottom end is built and that's whats important.


Again, thanks guys... pictures and updates will follow throughout this project.
