The power is in the cfm of the turbo chosen not the ci of the motor. Call precision and talk to one of the tachs and he will laugh while he tells you how people call asking for turbos for for very large cubic inch motors. He will then tell you how he will tell almost all of them to go smaller with the engine size.. Big turbos fitted to a small ci high reving motor works best for the street . Less torque with big hp win on the street every time!

There is a reason Proline stopped making the very popular 670" motors. The smaller 540" to 572" motors make more power. (Boosted that is)

It about has to be lack of appropriate sized turbos available for the big engine at high RPM doesn't it. Doesn't make sense to me otherwise.

George would have a different outlook if Chief was running heads other than Edelbrocks.

EHTTFMF!
