There is no such thing as too big of a turbo, just too small of an engine.
A friend told me that with a giant turbo on this 406 chevelle. Just wanted to say that, sorry not much of a turbo guy.

It is not at a bad price most I see are more expensive that that. They have a pedestal oil feed and the exhaust flange is missing.

What size engine would that be good on (remember gas applications!).

possibly you should refer this question to a turbo mustang website? Seems no one is biting here. Might just be the holiday weekend.

Powerstroke 7.3l turbos are going to be too big for you. Especially on the exhaust side.

.84 i think is what you want. Anything smaller and it will run out of power.
