Wish I could remember how long ago it was that Chase Knight (Worked at Crane Cams) ran this combination.

The 3 small turbos were not compounded, they were sharing the volume of the engine exhaust. The system WAS Compounded because the turbos (2 or 3) fed into the Roots Supercharger. Dan Parker in Kalamazoo Michigan ran a similar Compounded Turbo/Supercharger system (just like your picture) for 3 years on his Dragster at US-131 and other tracks. I worked for Dan Parker and his partner for 3 years in the evenings (after my college classes) building race engines. I helped one of his employees build a turbocharged 351 windsor Ford van (similar to a few other mid engine drag cars at the time). The employee kicked the driveshaft out of the vehicle (after the driveshaft was twisted 7 turns and pulled out of the transmission in a few seconds). This was 1974. The Picture should be before 1976 for the system you are posting about. Macinnis had a picture in one of his turbo books over the years of publishing that showed the 3 turbo system. Chase Knight got a lot of his technical info from Don Hubbard who worked for Crane. Don.wrote a small pamphlet about Turbochargers for Harvey. Hubbard was a Turbo Expert as well as a Camshaft Expert. His "Everyday Driver" was a turboed/ triple webered 65 Jaguar. Don H is mentioned in Macinnis books if you read the book carefully. Tom V.

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.
