I've wanted to put a turbo on one of my flatheads for decades! This is a wonderfully professional looking installation. Do you have more information that you're willing to give? This picture brings up so many questions: Do you have more pictures? What turbocharger did you use, what carb did you use? Did you fabricate or buy the turbo to intake manifold pipe? If you purchased the pipe, where? The same with the turbo exhaust pipe. Is that an O2 sensor in the exhaust pipe? What is the tube running from the brass fitting on the carb to the rear of the enginne? Etc., etc. I have a 265 in my FFPW and I'm thinking I could go down to 4.3 differential gears and still have plenty of power with a turbo.
