I want the 1914 to run on a carb, draw through. what I need is help with picking the parts like a cam, heads, turbo size,and so on. the 1914 will be running on 92 octane. I no someone has made a trubo 1914 to run quick, thank u so much for your help......  |

| Before swapping my 69 crank to an 82 my 1914 turbo with a W120 cam sounded very lopey at idle (8:1). Same cam in my 2276 turbo is still noisy, but nothing like the sound of the 1914. t3 turbo (switched over to a gt33 when I went to more displacement) and a holley 500 2bbl. Get a good ignition box that can retard timing under boost (I have the Mallory HyfireIV). |

They key to a good streetable turbo motor is to build a bad ass N/A street motor and then add a turbo.
My 1914 build was done with an engle W 120 cam w 1.25 rockers, A quality pair of ported and polished 40x35.5 valve heads. 9.5:1 cmpression. Motor made a little over 145 hp N/A. added a T3-60-1 turbo draw threw with a 600 cfm holley 4 barrel. boost was set at 8 PSI and I added an MSD 6 BTM for boost timing retard. Driven regularly on teh street the car averaged 24 mpg with 91 fuel. On teh week ends I added 114 fuel took a little less timing out and the 2060# car with driver would click off 11.40 @ 118 MPH

unless the car weights 500lbs u aint gonna do 10's  with a 1915 
2276 is doable 
rod depend on crank journal size.
most use a 38mm w.g.
