1 last project b4 I Quit . . 540" Twin Turbo Boss 9 for a daily pickup

[TimeWarpF100]

Still have My 482 '66 Pickup & numerous other FE's but thought it would be fun to build a real sleeper before I hang up the tools for good.

Would like to have had it a FE but for the HP level I wanted it was just not going to work. Mostly a parts avail issue and the bore stroke combo I was looking for.

Doing a Twin Turbo Boss 429 that will hopefully handle 3000 hp. Initially it will not be near that but the parts will be there . .

Uploading photo's now

Starting from Bottom up:

Had a custom Stef's pan built to fit the Aluminum Block/large main caps and of course the pickup truck chassis. Hope I measured correctly. Note the Turbo oil return fittings on pan.






Of course one of the if not the best cranks avail. This one a Billet from Sonny Bryant with a 4.25 Stroke.



Connecting rods by Carrillo





Custom Hard coated Turbo Pistons from Diamond










I am off my "rocker"



And of course one has to start off with the proper block!



Exciting stuff for me at least. If interest will update MY "Final Build"

The pan and crank looks to be real high quality parts

Is that an Eliminator block, or a Ford Motorsport?

Heads are being machined now. Pics soon!

C & C Motorsports 10.320 block. The Eliminator Sportsman is only good for 1100 hp, HP Billet good for 1400hp, Eliminator Ultra is only good for 2000hp. And the premier 2500+ They are all for 17 bolt heads. A lot of details to work out yet but wanted all good stuff to start with in case decide to "turn it up" .  One still never knows what may happen but at least a bit of insurance.

As long as you want to take average of what I have made for past 12 months that's good. Be here at 4:45 am in the morning to go over what you will be doing for the day. Any job you are given that you cannot handle $$ will be deducted accordingly.

What....no 3 stage nitrous system?

Almost seems a shame to hide those parts inside an engine. Stefs does some nice work!

Very, very cool.  Are you planning to put the turbos under the hood, or out back somewhere?

13 stages of nitrous with your finger on the buttons . . How many stages will you dare use in a old pickup? LOL

Hoping to fit it all under the hood. Its been a waiting game. I wanted the block & heads first so I could start building the headers and turbo mounting. Getting it fit in truck.

Its been one of those wait wait wait games. 6 Months since payment and parts are finally starting to show up. Heads I am told are getting machined now.

At the mercy of parts vendor's now.  Supposed to be end of march early april at the latest. But we all know how that goes!
