This question would prolly get the same number of replies if I sent it to the
whole list or just Grant Galbraith, but you never know.
Just out of shear curiosity, how many of our chevy/GMC I-6's have actually
successfully been turbocharged? I know about Leo's 292, but AFAIK it's not
actually running yet. Are there any others that are contemplating turbos or
who have actually done it? I know a few people through the net that have
turbocharged AMC and stude I-6's with amazing results, but their engines are
very different from ours with stouter bottom ends and better head designs. It
would really be nice to talk with someone who could offer up what I should
expect in terms of limitations and pitfalls when turbocharging my 270. Thanks.
