  • Turboed LS1 1957 Chevy..

    57 Chevy with 8 Turbos... crazy. A single turbo'ed LS1 in a 57 chevy would be badass in and of itself... but 8 turbos is nuts. :D

      It's not very efficient though.. a single Turbo set-up would produce more power. I think he just did it for kicks in giggles.. ;)

          slow as hell.... theres like 4,000 lbs worth of piping and turbos on that thing. [img]smile.gif[/img] I wonder how much over he means when he says WELL over 800HP? I wouldnt think that 1000HP would be enough to warrant all that piping and work. On the other hand, its a beautiful thing just in its own aesthetics.... just imagine once he gets all that piping jet-hot coated. :D

              I love the sound of those turbos in unison.

                    very ineffecient, but a cool idea. those turbos dont have enough exhaust pressure to power each one.

                    but still, a cool idea.

                        not saying that 800 is not a lot.... its plenty, more than enough actually..... its just you can achieve more with less work. on the other hand, this set-up is a novelty sort of thing, an I can only imagine how sharp that bay is going to look when he lifts the hood on that car and reveals all that polished piping. just the routing of it is kind of a work of art.

                            The site said it did.

                            The car is built to show and to go. When you go to a car show and look around what is going to stand out from all the other perfect cars... something that has not been done before, something unique. This car is exactly that. Might not be efficient but it is unique to say the least [img]smile.gif[/img]

                              800hp big block is not original. also not cheap either.

                              an octuplet turboed ls1 is original. hell the engin bay has so much space anyways why not fill it up.
