Hi all,

Im actually here from a google search where I was looking for turbo manifolds haha. Someone here has one and I was looking to see if he stil has it. Anyhow, I am the owner of a 1977 Datsun 620 longbed. I have R1 carbs on it that I am about to convert to blow through turbo. Im not looking for crazy power, I would be happy with 40hp over stock.

Sounds like the kind of project we want to read about.

Look forward to seeing your truck now, and the build.

We are all picture hounds here, post away!

Hello and welcome to The Realm. If you could put your location in your profile, that'll help us know where you areno.

Great 620. I never see any of those around here in SoCal.

You know that the intake and the exhaust manifolds are bolted together .... right?

That's the bottom of your intake and the two holes above are for the carb. If you make a 'turbo exhaust' manifold how will you seal this opening?
