    Has anyone converted a 6.2 into a turbo charged unit?

    Man the turbo knowledge on this page is scary.. no, none of all should do a.diy turbo. Turbo lag? Sure if you dont know what ur doing. And to answer the who would do this? There is always someone like me. I hava a 6.2l, 4r80e, and the knowledge and ability to make it happen.

    Has anyone converted a 6.2 into a turbo charged unit?

    Ive fiddle with anything that has an explosive chamber, moves fast and could be dangerous. Done my feel of racing and playing with diesel tow rigs til they get to wild and cant tow a trailer anymore. But im getting slower in my old age. I got the skills to fab whatever I need and and a rear...

    Has anyone converted a 6.2 into a turbo charged unit?

    I have not done it.. Got to be way easier than all this mess discussed in this thread. Ive been in some sick 800hp+ streetcars with rear turbo setups. Before that I wasnt on board with the idea. People thinking about turbos. You got to have more fuel or the turbo will be of little to no...

    Has anyone converted a 6.2 into a turbo charged unit?

    Where would I find said turbo? Part number? Link? Yall are funny and causing yourselves lots of work and money. Cut your muffler off, weld in a turbo flange positioned correctly, rout the exhaust tubing as necessary and send the fresh air to the front. Plenty of room and can be tucked above...

    Not good. I can just say its all there and it works. I am working on building my own bracket for a second alternater and it will be a 12v system thats isolated from the 24v. Just something to power electrics. Im going to use two 12v batteries and setting them up in a way that can be reworked...

    Think its around 5/16 aluminum. I can walk on it. Someday i may build a center roof console if needing a switch panel or ham radio gear.
