Carb'd 305 turbo?
Has anyone done a turbo job with one of these ebay turbo's, such as this one?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/CHEVY-SBC-28...-/160870089799
I'm not looking to build a 600 horsepower blown SBC, but is it possible to install one of these along with the proper injectors and achieve around 350 RWHP/Similiar torque?
The 305 I have started it's life as a LO3 TBI, now it's got an intake swap from an LG4 (I think.. don't quote me) and a 4 barrel edlebrock sitting on top.
What would have to be changed to add this setup, could you run low PSI on stock pistons and still have a manageable daily driver with decent power?

Re: Carb'd 305 turbo?
Thanks for the reply mate. I did see someone on youtube did a backyard turbo job on a roller 305 and made well over 400 rwhp, I can't remember the exact number.. but that's more than I need haha that's why I considered this setup. I just found 1,200$ too good to be true, you know? Like if it was this cheap why isn't everyone doing it? I understand the smaller 305 bore limits valve size but with forced induction **** goes down haha. Even in todays standards 400+ HP to the wheels is insane.
