Whats the max boost that a stock 350 engine could take with to4e .57 twin turbo?

that depends on the 'stock' motor...

Cam, compression, heads, age, ect...

That's pretty abysmal. That low CR will tolerate a fair bit of boost, except for the cast pistons and tight ring gaps.
I'd stop at about 9psi or so.

Everyone I talked to recommended against boosting that engine. That included Summit and engine shops. To do it right with that engine, you'd want to change the pistons/rings and the tiny cam too. But, by the time you change everything, you could've had a better engine built from the start.

i just wanted to find out but i have made my block already forged crank forged pistons nitrous hp cam and blow thru 750 carb, h-beam rods and the whole engine is arp bolted and the to4e twin turbo setup intercooled with 3 inch exhaust all the way back

then why do you care what a " stock " 350 will handle?

Superior Styles 02-13-2007 11:05 AM

cause i want to know it does not hurt to ask does it!

perhaps it's for future reference, it doesn't hurt to learn. better to ask than to bomb an engine. beside, 9 psi isn't bad at all if you're just looking to put a little kick in a daily driver, although I'd be a bit more conservative myself for an added durability factor
