Cool diesel turbos

I have a matched pair of diesel turbos fresh rebuilt and have a few questions about them and using them. If anyone can and will help I will gladly accept any and all help. So far some of the other places i have been have been very unfriendly. I plan to use these on a sbc and the others that i have will be used on a 2000 vortec 454. so if anyone is interested in helping I will gladly post the questions and all numbers and info on the turbos that I have. thanx again in advance. I hope some will help I would love to build my first turbo motor. have built several nos motors and a few supercharged motor now I want to learn and experiment with turbos. would love to do it with turbos with parts that I have and make it home built with out buying kits. I know kits will be easier but not as much fun I am not expecting tons of power but still lots of fun and to learn all I can and still go fast for minimum dollars thanx again Robb

Thumbs up diesel turbos

A larger turbo will not help you. The current turbo is capable of delivering more boost than design. A simple wastegate adjustment will take advantage of the higher boost, but will also run up the temps.
