Taff2, very informative and a great set up, believe I will try to be close to your setup.
Gorge I have ordered aluminum plugs that should be thick enough to tap, if not I can tig. Thanks for the info, I will definitely try the reverse cooling as I think it will be more efficient. The dream hp on this thing is 880 on a two four setup, lofty goal I know lol. We will start with c-16 on this one and move from there, have had great luck using this with a small mix on the supercharged car.

I have heard of great results with it, and the C-16 is not cheap! We are using two vintage Holley carbs to start with keeping the outside theme as an engine that would have ran in the seventies. But inside everything is what we expect these days, so it’s just a bluff.

E85 doesn’t change the look of the carbs and is allowed in nostalgia races. GTO George |

Should work! Mostly though dry decks equals race car hence the electric water pump. GTO George |

Regarding fuel, we can't get E85 over here at the pumps, only race E85 in cans,and it's pretty expensive. I have used Toluene for well over 15 years to make my own race fuel, I use it at 20% with 80% pump fuel (gas)to make a C16 quality race fuel for not much more than what I have to pay for low octane pump fuel. And it flat out works flawlessly. I've turned on all my mates to it ,and we actually sell it as a race fuel concentrate and octane booster. |

My turbo setup is a dry deck with a reverse cooled and uses a SBC mechanical water pump setup. I bought a Billet timing cover that lets u use the SBC WP.

Nice GTO George. I was going to put an inline Stewart pump but I didn't have any room due to pipes everywhere from this Turbo setup.

For those that mentioned tapping the core holes in a factory block, can you share the size they were drilled out to? 2 inch pipe seems large at this point compared to the core hole? Kind of curious how this was accomplished, the holes are a bit of an off size.

I drilled and tapped holes in the block wall to use 1/2"NPT to AN10 adapter fittings - I didn't thread the core plug holes-far too big.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
