We Get To Play With A Turbo Slant!

[@Jehale]

Seeing y’all shake hands took me back to the good old days of 2019

[@cardboardboxification]

you can tell all your grandkids how no one would shake hands during the great toilet paper shortage of 2020

[@gorkzop]

My thoughts exactly, I was like oh my God

[@johnwilburn]

I told Frank Hawley, "I'll shake your hand. I'm not a Democrat."

[@1marcelfilms]

When you are a real man you shake the hand!

[@metalmopars]

Hahaha Awesome.

[@gonzo5912]

I had a 71 Duster Slant 6 in the early 80`s, I was walking thru a junk yard and found a Offenhauser dual 2 bbl. intake. bought it and ordered me headers and did the exhaust, sounded cool and ran great.

[@paintnamer6403]

I never thought I would see a quadrajet 4bbl flowing into a 1bbl intake manifold, turbo or otherwise.

[@surfofsinify]

Looks kind of like the old Pontiac 301 turbo set up

[@gearhead1234]

Yes the Buick manifold part looks like a Chevy water neck...

[@surfofsinify]

@@gearhead1234 lol so did the Pontiacs is it the same turbo I never messed with the carbed Buick turbos

[@troyfoster3551]

I have a old 301 Pontiac turbo. It looks exactly like that.

[@attitudeadjusted9027]

Your right. Fix the flow problem and it should go.

Uncle Tony's neighborhood. Tony has the most interesting friends, Lambchops, Kiwi, and now Jim Bennett. Looking forward to seeing how that turbo slant goes. Hope you're planning on doing a video.

[@steveweiman4708]

Buick guy here.... I haven't had my mitts on one in 30 years but that entire intake and turbo assy. looks like it came off a '78 - '82 3.8 V6 turbo Regal. I never "played" with one back in the day but there's gotta be something there.....

[@El_Chompo]

I never realized how efficient the intake and exhaust ports being on the same side is for turbos! You don't have to do all sorts of wacky collector and intake tubes everywhere, it's just a neat little package. I love it. Like it was meant to be. I bet those old Jeep 4.0 inline 6 would go good with 5 pounds.

[@bigbear5510]

Reminds me of my '76 Valliant Brougham 4 door slant 6, bought it for $750 & drove that thing for like 8 years or so. Never had a problem with the motor, just changed the oil every once in a while. Could not kill it!

[@240kDatsun]

This unit really captures the imagination. Thumbs up.

Always wanted a 4-71 super-charged slant 6....love that blower whine

[@672egalaxie6]

I read the comments alot also, and yes, turbo slant is a recurring theme. This thing looks like a rip, and a pleasure to meet Jim Bennett. Seems like a gentleman. Looking forward to seeing this !

[@michaelschablon6148]

Yes yes yes! Im in Australia and have my grandfathers ‘68 Chrysler Valiant with the 225 super six. I would love to put some boost into it. Nothing crazy keep it around 6-8 psi. But I know nothing about turbos. Can wait for this project Uncle Tony.

[@salr9851]

Love it. Can't wait. Got a 225 slant six d100.

[@larrydunlop378]

Way too cool Tony ! First upgrade would be a 2bbl intake off an 80s slant truck. Or go aftermarket 4bbl intake. Cant wait for your touch! This guy was smart to pick this up!!!

[@snakevale198444]

I absolutely love this car and setup!

[@79tazman]

That car is killer it looks badass with the dog dish caps. that's so cool

[@AtZero138]

My V8 318 Dart looks just like this.. and Yes I agree.. need them Dog dish caps, also called poverty caps by the old school guys haha.. I run a single exhaust so it looks like a Slant6 car still.. and away I Go.. peace Brother

[@DanITGuy]

What's better than grandmas old white six banger Dart whoopin ass?? LOVE THIS!! AWESOME CONTENT UNCLE TONY!

[@GriMmL0v3]

Going to be a cool build for sure. You made this dude so happy he looks like he just got to meet his hero.

[@watzonda2b]

Tony, the turbo has an adjustable wastegate arm on it. Shorten it one turn at a time and the boost should go up favorably! Looks like Pontiac Turbo Trans am 301 parts!

[@curtisharrison4837]

Their is a pro charger application,that supposed to work really well. I have a 84 power ram with slant 4sp. I reconfigure,simplify.Ballast resistor,moved the coil away from the fuel pump,it was a wiring Nitemare,American wire,box and all. I can't get time on it,constantly on someone else's,and a full time.It was love at first sight.4+4 4sp slant6 $700,had to have.

Het Uncle Tony cool vid. Awesome to see stuff like this. Super interesting build👍👍👍

[@edwardmarculewicz5140]

You guys are amazing! Great knowledge!

[@moparproud3978]

Damn that car is badass! It’s perfect; four door, slant, turbo

[@_Greasyzoku_]

SUPER COOL! But I really think it needs a custom intake manifold & exhaust manifold

[@peters8758]

He wants it quicker off the line, said it has an 8.75 rear end with 3.23 gears -- it's easy to pop the carrier and go 3.55 gears. Don't let the 4.11 gears tempt you. Since there's a turbo, it wants to be revved but that long 4.125" stroke could limit things. Grab a 3.64" stroke crank from grandma's 198 cu. in. slant six. Despite 10% less displacement, it might produce more power if it can rev 20% higher, and give surprising torque from the turbo feeding the 198's longer rod/shorter stroke combination. Coupled to the aforementioned 3.55 gears you'll spool the turbo up into its useful range much sooner and get maximum benefit from it at higher rpm's.

[@jessier7476]

I'm happy I look forward to following this

[@michaelrode6152]

Hi Tony, this video bought a smile to my face as I own the equivalent type of Valiant model here in Australia, it was badged a Chrysler valiant VE from 1969 and it is white is a four door with a slant six plus auto, I look forward to seeing what you accomplish with this car, thank you for your awesome content, cheers👍😉

[@aussiebloke609]

Wow, I would have thought the VE to be '67 or '68, since the VF was introduced in March of '69. Yours must have been one of the last VEs off the assembly line. PS: I was lucky enough to get my hands on a VG Pacer hardtop as my first car, back in the '80s, so I have a soft spot for the hemi...but I had an AP5 a couple of years later, so I can appreciate the 225 slant with the 904 Torqueflite (pushbutton auto!) as well. :-D

[@gregschultz2029]

That is a cool ride ,Looking forward to the test and tune !!!

[@anthonydownes8769]

That sounds like fun! Another project to follow with my own slant 6!!

[@aftershock2222]

This is going to be one of your best, Tony. I’m really looking forward to the vids.

[@Vampirebear13]

Tony !!!!!! Even though I'm a "Mustang guy" I've always had a thing for Darts & I'd like to have this Dart as a daily driver. I'd take the turbo off, just use a 4 bbl. & add a locking rear end & it'd be a great daily. Thumbs up from OHIO !!!!!!!!!

[@NightWrencher]

Really cool! Never seen anything like that. Its going to be tough pulling more boost out of that things. Depends on the cam and the way the turbo is set up

[@joesjunkcars6328]

I love seeing boosted slants, I have never seen it done the same way twice. This is an interesting build, I can't wait to see how it drives.

[@HarleyHawk1]

Very cool. I always thought it would be cool to play with a factory pontiac turbo on my 79 Bonneville. Has a 301 V8 just like the turbo trans ams of that period. Look forward to seeing this project.

[@tyronebiggums5964]

That's an expensive proposition unless you can source all the parts from a junkyard or a cheap parts car. Also, the turbo T/As were slow as fuck by modern standards. They'd get smoked by a stock V-6 Altima in a drag race.

[@HarleyHawk1]

@@tyronebiggums5964 I know that. Just would be a cool factor, think they only had like 205 horsepower anyways. It would be fun to experiment with. I've seen the turbos around

[@HarleyHawk1]

I have a 1970 GTO 455 4 SPEED. I want to prove you can make factory fun and fast. 301 turbo would be unique. They weren't anything spectacular but that's why it'd be cool.

[@Riverdeepnwide]

I love Darts and especially sleepers . '72 fav year. It'd be nice to see a creative way to lose the lumpy hood, lotsa room over on the side there.

[@btunks7357]

This is gonna be a fun project. Can't wait to see the base numbers and where it ends up.

Reminds me of the draw through plenum transfer turbo set-up I put on my 77 Ford 4x4 van with a 460. It was inconsistent and didn't work that great, but when I did, it was a handful. It too was very odd.

[@jamoshotrod]

Oh man, this is a cool idea. I'm excited to see where this goes.

[@kcrreedranch]

GM used the draw through on 3 vehicles. The Buick 215 V-8- The Corvair Spyder Monza. had a draw through using a Webber side draft. And the first gen Buick V-6 with a quadrajet. Dont need a blow off valve ,or waist gate or even a cooler. Dont make the power all that other stuff does. But is much more user and driver friendly. You do have to have a special turbo blade on the intake side. Do to impact with the gas droplets . Dig into this Uncle Tone. I want to do one myself for a long time. There are after market kits that show up from time to time on Ebay.

[@victormiranda9163]

wooo whooo! a 6 on boost! Looking forward to this. I am thinking heat may be your biggest overall issue.

[@gg5115]

If it lasts 1000 miles on 8 psi I'll be surprised. There's a reason the builder set it to 5 psi. It sounds great and somewhat faster than stock. That's good enough for a lot of us.

[@victormiranda9163]

@@gg5115 I think the issue is getting the power to be generated where the engine will survive it. At 2k to 2.5k rpm you want all that boost, and the turbo will be anemic there ( I am guessing the 8 that supplied the turbo flows more exhaust) If you get enough boost at the low revs you will need relief at 4,000. If I had started this project I have hunted a turbo for a 2.5 to 3 liter engine to have the turbo spin up faster in lower flow. this is because the 6 is not regarded as a high rpm engine. I'd treat it as a high speed diesel.

[@ScottKenny1978]

@@victormiranda9163 pretty sure this turbo was for a GM 3.8liter v6.

[@albertgaspar627]

I think CARS magazine did one of these, but the hairdryer came off a 62 Buick. Can't remember if there was a Hyperpak intake involved, but i think it was all fueled by a sidedraft but i can't remember what car that was pulled from, maybe a brit sportscar? Throwing "mindgames" toys like this for cheap is fun on the streets. Like the time a friend and I had nitrous on a "361" and hooked an oil squirt can to the exhaust. We'd go for a run, and spray some oil into the exhaust system on the return, like it was burning oil out the piston rings. the more races we got, the more squirts we put in, until the "high rollers" kept betting just to see the engine blow. They probably still swear a 361 will never blow up no matter what :) Its like trying 3 card monte on some young fellas who "know everything". I can see a car like this really lasso'ing in some LS fan bois who think the sun rises and sets on their coil packs.

[@Sc2ner]

Buicks Regals used it also. They had a 2bbl and 4bbl versions

[@livesteamfan1]

Really? Did not know that. Only turbo Buicks I've ever seen were the Grand Nationals, and those were efi. Like I said, I've only seen that exact turbo and carb configuration on the '81 Trans Am. And to be honest, it was pathetic at best. They could've put it on a better engine and with more boost. But it was still the early days of turbo cars.
