if you follow Herr's R&D, you will see a very thorough, and well thought out approach to turbo-ing a 928.

Oh I know that. I have been a fan of Mr. Kuhn since the days of Goldmember.

I have recently aquired a 78 widebody that I think I am going to try to turbo charge. It is 8.5 to 1 c.r. so it should lend itself to this project. I originaly wanted to run twins but I believe I will have trouble making them both fit. John, I know you sent those old Callaway manifolds to Don B. Maybe he will let me sketch them before he uses them. But a single will fit easier and be cheaper. I could probably minimize the heat losses at the crossover by ceramic coating it don't you think? I have wanted to do this anyway with the plumbing and hot side to keep underhood temps as low as possible. I'm still in the planning stage for now. BTW John, I need to discuss your distributor retard method with you. Maybe at SITM over a beverage.
