Light turbo charging is within the reliability curve for the 6.2, this is the design intent of the Banks Sidewinder and ATS systems. Both of these companies are still around, the main reason for deprecation of their offerings is age. The system I am designing is based on the operating...

Head gaskets on 6.2 engines are a normal wear item. I'm in the same boat with my 1031. Most cast iron cylinder heads with induction hardened valve seats will crack since the hardened seat is very brittle. Furnace welding is a viable repair method that lasts since it leaves the material in a...

Exactly why I am doing small twins. Computational fluid dynamics are now used to design modern turbos so I found turbo that were made by the millions for a European engine shared between multiple manufacturers.. Ford, Mazda, Peugeot, Citroen and Cooper used it on a free spinning 1.6 liter four...

There will be a control system monitoring manifold pressure and opening the turbo vanes to keep it under 10 PSI. Both intake and exhaust manifold pressures. Drive pressure limits the GMX turbo systems. The free.floating Banks Sidewinder only benefits higher engine speeds. Both systems are...

Manifolds from lightly massaged 1-1/2 Sch10 stainless (1.9" OD, 0.109" wall thicknes). This pipe will match the oval port on the exhaust. Port spacing almost perfectly matches standard tee dimensions for this pipe size. I'm burning individual flanges like HMMWV headers.. Just waiting on...

I have an M1031 with functional generator and governor. I am designing a light turbo to mimic the Banks Sidewinder performance plus eliminate lag so it has boost from 1200 to 3600 RPM. Just 10 PSI but with modern technology. Twin turbos..twin variable geometry turbos ;). 200 to 240...
