 Post subject: Turbo, Super?
PostPosted: Sun Feb 10, 2002 5:13 pm 
I live in the bahamas where making kits is almost impossible, or way too expensive. I have a 1968 plymouth Valiant with the 225 slant six, and i was wondering if any companies make a bolt up turbo or super charger kit.

I run a turbo and I had to make everything. I do not know of anybody that sells anything for a turbo slant six.

I have also done SL6 Turbo set-ups and always had to build my own manifolds, we can only hope that someday, someone will build a Turbo kit for the Slant. (even a nice SL6 to Turbo manifold would be a big step forward)

Ak Miller did kits years ago. When I talked to him last year, he indicated that they did not have the exhaust manifolds anymore. There might be some of his manifolds in the junk yards. Apparently years ago his company outfitted a number of California DOT trucks.

This is interesting . . .
Did Ak & friends do a special casting??
I wonder where the pattern equipment went, finding that would save me some work!

From the pictures that I have seen, it appears to be a casting (An old performance book from the mid '70s). That is why I had contacted him. He is still in business, I found his phone number by doing a google search.
