Stroked, and turbo'd

Well I haven't said much in here in some time, and some of you might remember my project that has turned into two year, for the rest of you here's the short version, 250 offset ground crand to 4.125" block bored to .037 over, Manley rods, CP pistons, Clay Smith custom turbo cam, Turbonetics 62-1 turbo, now if I can get the pictures loaded on here you all can see it mated to its tranny (TKO 500) if all goes well it's going in my Fairmont this weekend

and yes I do have one of Mikes heads, but no intake so my mill'd head will have to do for now

Whoa!

It's a 250 block so the standard 5.0 bellhousing bolts right up.

Very Nice. I like the head especially. Lot's of passes w/ a flycutter

Thanks, I spent, well lets say alot of time, lets hope it runs hard.

what are the part numbers for the pistons and rods?

The pistons are custom made for my combo, the rods are made for a Mitsubishi Eclipse turbo motor, 1.88" journal

i know you have said before but i have forgotten what is the overall CI of the former 250

It is now 269 Cu. In. like I said before in other posts I would not do this combo again, I would keep the stroke close to stock, and use longer rods, one could do this combo pretty cheap using Jeep rods and if I remember right chevy 305 pistons, I have my notes somewhere might have to get them out,

interested to know how you attached the plate to the milled head ?

is it bolted on? welded? brazed ?

i read all your old posts but didnt see it specifically mentioned

do the intake and exhaust share the same flange? thats what it looks like from the pictures. do you have any more pics of the exhaust manifold?

Classic Inlines sells the JE pistons, you could use them also. That is what I plan on doing. Product ID: JEP-200-FPD and rings Product ID: JEP-200-RGS. I am just deciding if I should use stock rods or not.

the plate is attacted using lots of tappered head and counter sunk allen bolts, if you look close at the pic you will see what looks like smaller holes, I also used that super stranth Loc tite to keep them in place

The intake and exhaust are on one flange, I tried to seperate the two but I wasn't sure I could make them seal

You did it the way that Stroppe and Assoc. did in the 60's, so I figure it is good enough. Short of furnace brazing, it is probably the best that you can get.

Pretty slick there. I always wondered if the same could be done with a 300-6
