^ Even better, I was hoping I'd be able to install something larger than the T-67, and a T-76 is perfect. Was afraid I was going to need to compensate for the smaller turbo by adding a longer stroke, but with the T-76, I can stick with the forged 3.48 stroke crank that I have....
That ZO6 was a very big mistake. Once property tax season hit, I looked at the Corvette, and said to myself, I can't lol. Maybe if I didn't have the house I'd try to storage it, but with the insurance being as high as it is, and the warranty really limiting things, it's become more of an expensive piece of art. The sale will hurt me in the years to come, for sure....

I'd much rather be stroked first... then blown. Wouldn't you?
The T76 hits hard, very hard, but If I stayed with the 350ci and had to choose from the T76 or 62-1 turbo I would have to say that I would choosen the 62-1. The 62-1 hits hard and soon, perfect for the street.
Well about the Z06, at least enjoy the mistake for the duration of it
Street Lethal; That is a very good idea with the valve cover!
Let me know if you'd consider offering them as well, because I'm sure you would perfect them, and I would buy a set immediately in addition with the header. A company called "Tin Indian Performance" notches their own valve covers to clear the brake booster on Pontiac applications, as well as company engraving, Click here....

Yes, I knew the guy. I remeber that the communication between us was a bit akward since he used a email translator and it didnt really do the job right. Dennis, he is a good guy.
He didnt exactly did little modification here are pics of what he did, judge it yourself.
There was a guy in russia who modded your kit a little for the C4.
think you can do it?
Sorry to barge in F-body guys.
A tight fit in an already tight engine bay. He kept the factory serp setup. I'm impressed.
I think if BBS started making kits, people would come. Been seeing a lot of people ditch the fbody/gbody for C4's now that the prices are better. (A decent C4 can be had now for under $6000). And they don't have a majority of the same issues as fbody's.
Not that there is anything wrong with Fbody's. I still have a 4th gen. But after
10 years you get sick of a car.

Well, it looks like you would use less metal.
did he send you the pics, or did you guys mod those for him?
Dennis ordered the kit from a company located in the US and they bought it from us, I never imagined it was going into a C4 in Russia!!!. If I knew I would probabbly offered something like I did with Luke with his left hand drive Camaro on Australia or Keith with his 2008's Best of the Best Chevy 57' award winning Nomad. They simply took pictures of the engine bay with a measuring tape on critical spots that I requested and send them to me. I then made their kits accordingly and they fit pretty well. At least I think the work, if needed, was going to be minimal. To be honest, I feel that he performed some heavy surgery on my headers Well, he make it work and I take off my hat for him.
do we have any pics of the tt headers mounted on a motor...i want to see where the turbos would go and what kinda clean up i would need to do to make it all work....

he just sent me some pics. I was going to try and buy them off of him.
Looks like they were butchered.
he wanted to trade me for a 1 off kit I already have for the C4, which is a t3/t4 combo. I dont think so. He also had to cut holes in the hood for the compressors to peek through maybe a 1/4 inch... Not an easy fit at all.
The website is published www.bermudezcustomdesigns.com and it should be up anytime now. There you will be able to see what we are offering and a gallery with some of the pictures of our own builds and from clients that had sent their pics so you can see the different setups and how they look installed.
Gunner823: For now only turbo headers, but we do have a used driver's side header that can be used to make a complete exhaust kit (except the turbo and downpipe) for the single turbo setups if you are interested.
Sy Berudez, Im gathering all piping needed for the turbo setup, What size coupler did you end up using into the intake manifold? On the 3.1 that I have it's an oval hole 2.75" x 3.25".
We used a 3" dia reducer. I think I remember putting a little effort fitting it into the TB. Your header will be shipped out this week. I'll contact you when it does.

Huy guys ! ! ! Got to www.cardomain.com and looks for excellegions, find the 1991 rs camaro and I have pics on the turbo header that BBS Designs created for me ! ! My Turbo v6 is nearly completed ! ! Thanks Bermudez, more questions to come ! ! !
Sorry to bring this back after awhile, but I am having difficulty finding a T-70 or 76 with a .60 a/r compressor housing...the recommended size to fit the BBSDesigns' serpentine belt header. Any hints? My mods are in my sig, and I'm pretty sure I need at minimum a T-70. All the Masterpower turbos are .70 a/r....
