They were shorrock gaycharged back in the day, so don't see why a turbo wouldn't work. Would probably bab itself pretty quickly though. If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

If you can source some proper old racing pistons for it and a 295, this would be as smooth as silk... On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:

It has been done, I'm sure. The subject comes up on here now and then.
