10.5° is the critical angle of lean for to get the Borg Warner KP 35 turbo vertical 🚢🔨🍻👍  The rag heads have but a hair dryer on the 1.5l Hindustan Ambassador so a boy from Northants with a workshop full of gear should be able to manage it  |

Is it some kind of musical instrument like a French Horn?

Turbocharged vehicle engines are not gimballed and may have to climb >1:4 at times so a minute here or there won't matter. I've a spare manifold at work to start building it up on, going to be busy in the blacksmiths hovel over the next week or two |

What you putting it on? Years ago I fitted a 2.3 bedford diesel engine into my 3 litre Opel Monza auto, it was hard work and gutless, so we fitted a turbo and intercooler we had laying around! It was better after that but never as good as the 3 litre petrol I blew up!

Not for a while, we are away boating through the summer so I have promised to leave it till late August at the earliest. Got my eye on a nice HX that will do perfectly as a water to air intercooler, we have an inexhaustible supply of cold cooling water Interestingly the specs for the Kubota 1505T and the BMC 1.5 are very close, the BMC has a longer stroke but timing, compression ratios, oil pressure etc are very similar. It's a project I've had in mind for a while mouse used to work at Turbo Techniques so it's a bit the wheel has come full circle (all be it 30+ years later!) |

Dont do it Gazza its a converted petrol what was at the limit as a petrol, and didnt do well in the Morris oxfords and Marinas it was fitted in when it was dieselised |

I've a few lb ft and HP to claw back on Vanguards Perky |

I've a few lb ft and HP to claw back on Vanguards Perky When I was in India the Hindustans had Isuzus in them not BMCs or the ones I opened the bonnets on did. Looked at wiki and the early were BMC petrols then the diesel then the isuzu petrols and diesels other versions had some very strange engines!! I havent seen any of the BMCs turbo charged though |

I saw the blurb for those but unfortunately they arnt a standard BMC engine they were worked over by Magna Steyr although what they did to it I have no idea as their site seems to embarrassed to mention it! Anyway enjoy yourself whats the worse thing it can do?  |

Anyway enjoy yourself whats the worse thing it can do? We are RPM restricted anyway, limit is mainly raw water cooling pump, the aim is to up the shaft RPM a bit (1:1 box) but more importantly get a bit more twist out of her for punching a good tide. A few quids worth of turbo, intercooler and some oil lines is a sight quicker, cheaper and easier than putting a Beta 45T in. We are on a 1000 hour old engine that has led a pampered life, rpm ceiling will be 2600 - until I get a new 3/4" pump on her As I said earlier, in mouse I've a design consultant on hand who in a former life (before he took a bang to the head and became an electrician) was a mover and shaker in the early days of performance turbocharged cars along with prior to that buggering about with big Smelly diesels both two and four-stroke flavour, we should be alright I've a scheme to build a trick one piece inlet/exhaust manifold over the winter, it will include an EGT sensor, a port for a boost gauge and charger air temperature sensor along with a patented Perkins thermostart bonfire to work in conjunction with the glow plugs. It's more interesting than decorating |

Not sure they will approve of this on the Nene

Not sure they will approve of this on the Nene I used to look after my friends Fairline Carrera that had a 17Obhp turbocharged and supercharged Volvo KAD32 in it, it was wasted on the shallow <7mph Nene, useless on the even shallower <5mph Middle Levels and is only slightly better on its new home on the Great Ouse - a boat desperate for some water under her Keel and a bit of an open seaway. |
