Should i ditch the maggy for a turbo?

I think its a stroked 5.7 by reading this...
Chassis - "Casper" owned by Mike Moran. First Pro Street car to go into the 6s and break 200 MPH on Labor Day in 1996.

Engine - 352-inch factory iron block LS1 built by Wheel to Wheel Powertrain.

Twin-turbo system - designed and built by Wheel to Wheel Powertrain.

Combination built to test the limits and potential of the LS1 engine platform in drag racing.

Current best ET: 6.86 @ 205 MPH

Presently the quickest and fastest LS1-powered vehicle in the world.

iron block ls1 is the 4.8/5.3 since it was meant to be a iron 5.7. 352 could be a bored out 5.3, who knows fast car from 3 yrs ago

or could be a destroked 6.0

I got misquoted like three or four times.

Pro Mod has allowed turbos for a long time (or they did). Pro Mod is not an NHRA Pro class.

I said that IF the NHRA allowed turbos is the pro classes the records WOULD BE SMASHED AND BROKEN AND BLOWN AWAY (pun intended) by the turbos...but the NHRA is stodgy.

Why was my quote taken as being against turbos...?

What is a Thrush bearing....? Is that like when you get a fungus inside a spinning supporting roller device?

Wildman, did you write that long post on page 8 yourself or is it a cut and paste?

Im curious myself lol

[sprayedenali]

the thrush bearing is just a more specific term for the muffler bearing but only in thrush mufflers

thrust*

[GasGuzzler]

Got it. Quik is correct there. The tension on the drive pulley is harder on the crankshaft thrust surface. That goes back to efficiency. The turbo makes power off used stuff and the SC uses stuff to make power.

Remember though, there is no such thing as a free lunch.
