Well I've finnaly decided to start researching my twin turbo build with the Olds DX350 I have laying around and found some good inspiration:
My plan is to research the Buick motors to gather the right clearances, CR, Bore, Stroke and Head Flow to obtain a 442 c.i. monster. My goal is 600hp but I can see this putting out around 800hp which is crazy
Stay tuned...
Here are some specs that come from a 265 c.i. Buick V6:
