230 Offset Rods have anything to do with this Bob? That engine sounded impressive though... The /6 bottom end was not all that different from the 250/265 bottom end, correct?

2bbl? and reason why? Call him and ask, he can discuss what your needs are....

Get a hold of George Asche, he can not only make you an intake but has them for sale, as well rebuilt carbs, and great carb linkages. a 1 stop service, carbs and linkage when bought are set-up and balanced, drop install and away you go...

And in 1954 the Chrysler Corp marketed there new V8s for big truck, the new V8 had slightly more HP than the 265 with factory dual carbs/exhaust, the 265 had a stock cam and head, so nothing was gained there.

Hey Adam look forward to road testing and how your setup performs on the road, hot weather etc...

Well yes and no on the 200 hp, a 250 rated at approximately 116 hp and slightly higher in big truck engines in the late 1950s. Okay so add the tri carb intake, headers/dual exhaust, high compression head, lighter weight 3 ring racing pistons, and you could climb to 175 hp and whole lot more torque, RPM and umph. Now 200hp, might be a little tough on a mild build, going all out might not. A 265 might yield this 200 bench mark a bit easier. The type of build I describe on a 250 should be noticeably more powered then a tired stock 250. Slant 6s can be made to go like a " bat outta hel", 11 second quarter mile cars are not outta the question, and a 1961 Dodge Lancer with a 225 hi perf engine taught a Hellcat Hemi a lesson on the strip, don't believe it google it on You Tube... You wanna make power, seriously give George Asche a call, he will tell you the straight on this... PS waking your 250 up,in a mild build, will most likely give you all you want.

Most often they don't get "lumpy". You are thinking overhead valve V8. The more aggressive a cam profile for these engines results in a higher RPM at idle. Now those who want a 500 rpm dead silent idle and the moment the light turns green they want the monster to come alive well thats a compromised balance in spec. Give George Asche a call he can grind you a cam and give full recommendations to your needs.

Pm timkingsbury im not home and do not have it with me.

Just a note the AoK built intakes the cast items will most likely be collectors items at some point. As compared to other intakes they have not cast all that many and with Georges name on it it will be a Mopar Flathead commemorative piece. George is advancing in age next month he is 86 not sure how long he can continue to do what he does....just a fyi

George makes dual and tri carb intakes for both 23 or 25 inch engines. He did cast a beautiful dual carb intake for the 23.5 inch engines too. He rebuilds carbs 2nd to none and makes beautiful well functioning carb linkages. Give him a call. Edgy makes some kinda dual carb intakes for 2 bbls not sure if he has 1 bbl designs and it might be pricey.

I always ran detergent oils, never had a problem even before the engines pans were cleaned out. Not sure how much stock I put into the non detergent claim, heck detergent oil has been around a long time. Hey but there are all kinds of "oil stories" out there. Here is my oil pan from my 228 Fargo engine, bottom end was quite clean, and not much sludge in the pan...

Thanx OAD refreshing when accurate and reliable info is presented. Yes George Ache Carbs are King. Have a matched set and his custom linkage well built and great prices..

Well of course, but knowing it can be blasted to a higher RPM might assure its okay blasting to 4500 rpm on bursts for short periods of time. Here is my well worn out 228 revving to 4000 RPM easily.

This is an area I have no idea. But having said this, these engines can spin to 5000 RPM without adverse affects, as long as the bottom end is in good shape. Now this is the words of renowned Mopar Flathead engine builder George Asche Jr., this RPM he quoted is without any modifications to the crank or bearing shells. Now a Turbo boosted engine, might create further load and pressure along with the RPM, I really don't know. But revving to 4500 should be no issues, and keeping Boost moderate and in perspective. Maybe Mc Cullough had an Issue with Mopar period and marketed their products as such...

Your redline can be safely increased to 4500 to 5000 RPM with a healthy stock bottom end.

Fantastic looking forward to your build..

Great look forward to your builds Gents. Please fo post along the way, then we can all learn something. I'm hoping someone who has already done this on say a 230 or 265 can post some real world results and data with respect to HP, torque, and performance....

Some have seen this on U tube. We wont be prejudicial as it is a Stude engine

Hey all, This thread will discuss and illustrate Chrysler Flathead 6 Turbocharging and Blowers. I know very little about this topic and would like to learn more. What works what doesnt. Draw through, blow through, PSI, waste gates inter coolers piping and carbs etc. Add your comments, pics, videos etc. I will post some pics and videos l8ter in the thread too. I did a seatch and not a meaningful amount of discussion and/ or projects have been undertaken...

Kool is that what Jibjobb has I wonder? I was just kidding with the 0 to 60...lol Believe me my 228 is not so fast. I am hoping he has a comparison from before and after..

On what a 201? 0 to 60 in 60 seconds .....lol Okay relate to our viewers the difference in measurable terms if possible...

Your not intruding, mate. Just thought maybe you had a different idea as comparing to a stock head CC...

Help in what way as its not stock. Its a nice head no doubt. Note the sparkplug hole position as compared to stock...
