We are going to build a ground up turbo Slant Six to about 12 lbs of boost. This will be a presureized blow thru system on a Holly 4150 four barrel carb. Mr James Jaggers at Jaggers Fabrication will be our sponsor and we are going to do r/d work which will filter to street cars. We are fast tracking this project now and hope to have it going by May. Im excited about this project and look foward to It. James has a racing background and is a perfessional in fabrication. Look at that tig weld on his web site. Thanks and thanks for everybodys support. :D :D





Bagels On Juice Im On Boost

Its going to be a top hat design James can do that. We are in the process of maybe obtaining new forged 2.2 turbo pistons 1mm oversize for this project. This whole deal came together fast and I know I still wont have the fastest Slant Car The 69Dart is about as aero as a box of Bagels but i love that car. There is no virtue in a car it is just metal plastic rubber and what. But I dreamed of this all my life and it is coming true. My current goal is to do this project and then win another national championship. Because after all is said and done






It Aint Over Until I Win Thanks Ron Parker :D

There will be a few days delay on the wastegate flanges. The man making my flanges cnc software crashed. I am starting on the headers tomorrow. I am hoping to have one of the headers built by the end of the week. I will keep the pictures posted on my website. You can make a slant six "GET IT". That's what my dad always said.

The wastegate collectors came in and I started on the collector of the turbo header, but my plasma cutter took a dump on me. I will be posting some pictures tonight of what I have done so far. I hope to have a new plasma cutter before long. I will concentrate on the intake for now.

Yes they were. If you live in southern Indiana you may know of a grey barracuda running around that is tubbed. I built the chassis and help build the engine. It hooks on the street great. He is not afraid to get it on blacktop. I will post some pictures of it on my website.

I will be back on the headers tomorrow. I am getting a different plasma cutter. I may start trying to make my own flanges. I have been paying set up fees for cnc machines to cut them and it is quit exspensive.
