97Transam123 Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 (edited) I am not sure if this is the correct place for this. But my girlfriend and I just finished a pretty big project on her car. It is a 1985 Dodge 600. We got rid of the old carburetor and put on a stock 12a non intercooled turbo and 89 wiring harness. We will post pics as soon as I can get time. We took pictures every step of the way. Long process and It was all done by my girlfriend and I. Okay. You asked for pics so here they are!!!

Indiana Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Compression ratio is going to be high, I'd not boost that more than 4 or 5 psi to start the headgasket won't take it. The tranny may be the weak link that tranny wasn't ever used with a turbo motor but I'm sure you could build it to be always wanted to do this but in a minivan. You keep the stock motor mounts? Wasn't this mentioned before or somewhere else? I remember reading about this happening awhile back. Should be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
97Transam123 Posted June 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 The bottom end is all conquest. I went through it and put sealed power pistons from a conquest in it. The stock pistons were flat tops and the ones in it now have a dish. Puts it right around 7.5:1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustPaus_88TSi Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Total sleeper.. How do you think the tranny will hold on for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highly Boosted Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Total sleeper.. How do you think the tranny will hold on for? So far the trans is holding up pretty good for her but as soon as the boost goes up i dont think that trans is going to like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couth'nize Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 You guys did a very good job on that car.....keep it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technology Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 That's awesome! I want to do that now. It looks like a lot of fun, plus now you can mod it like any factory turbo car (i.e. big intercooler, bigger turbo, big exhaust, more fuel and dyno tuning). w00t.

Technology Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Make sure it's mounted externally on the front bumper for maximum jdm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

97Transam123 Posted July 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 Looking good. Rear waterpump FTL... haha... That crank pulley looks baller... might have to cop me one of them. -Robert yeah I was very happy with how the car turned out. I think one of the biggest obstacles was the power steering pump. The pump stock is mounted right where the turbo inlet is. So the pump is moved down a good 4''. She has been driving it and having fun with it. It has more power then it ever has had in the past.
