hmmm..........1970 GTO: Twin Blown Beast

RACER X · 12-31-2008, 02:24 PM

don't know what say about this............

"These two Stage 2 BDS blowers are capable of flowing 435 (8-71) and 411 (6-71) ci of air per revolution each when run 1:1 with the crank. The NOS can add a 300hp shot, but to use it all at the same time requires a large bucket to pickup the scattered crank and connecting-rod shrapnel. "

wonder what psi that is, and what rwhp is

"IF" thats a real GTO...what a fucking waste....

The twin blowers like that (IMHO) are just for looks. The parasitic loss from running that configuration would be ungodly. There was a 60something chevy truck at a show with almost the same engine, the owner said it was just for the wow factor. The car is beautiful tho.

A lot of extra money wasted but wouldn't mind putzing around in that thing.

I was thinkin the same thing about the losses from the blowers. performance wise, the way they're stacked two high like that also creates a problem in terms of power cause they completely fuck up the aerodynamics of the car, and just serve as a brake.

The car is beautiful, but the blowers are fugly. Single blower wouldn't be horribly atrocious, a small one with a ram-air hood would be even better.

its pro-street, ridiculously expensive, ridiculous looking, and almost completely incapable of being fast
