I've got this turbo charger from a Chevy small block single turbo set up. It spins freely and no FOD has travelled through it, so with minor maintenance it may be useable.
I read some numbers of the intake side: Serial: FF0413 A.I.D. P.N. 465210-9 Model TO4B35 Can anybody tell me what this is, how much boost will it build on a 283CuI engine, etc. I am sure it's a piece of crap, but I would like to build a crude carbureted turbo charged small block at some time. |

AR is normally stamped on the intake of the turbo..the turbo i bought has A/R .50 stamped into the side
If its in bad condition, maybe cleaning the turbo will reveal some of the stuff you need to know How much boost the turbo builds depends on the wastegate you buy and what you set the spring at. A brand new turbo of that size can probably produce 25lbs of boost or more, but building an engine to handle that kind of pressure would cost some major green |
