That looks like an early jury rigged heater blower.

Might be worth buying but it’s definitely not a turbo

Thats a heater blower. AKA what pushes heat from your heat exchangers to your cabin.

That is a prime example of a one-off custom variable rate, centrifugal, high-amp, low-volt, forced induction system...
To the heater boxes. |

That looks like an early jury rigged heater blower. It is an early heater blower. But, it's not jury rigged - that looks stock, except that the flex hoses a bit too long. Wrong type of hoses and wrong length. Concourse weenies would be very upset. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) |
