I am 17, so i have the speed bug. My 1965 plymouth barracuda has a
slant 6 and i have an idea to make it a super powerful classic. Now,
we all know stock, taht the slant 6's are tough. But, is it possible
to beef it and run this configuration? My idea is to beef up the
engine as much as I can to handle the speed and power and run it like
this. It will have a standard single barrel, and 3- 4barrel carbs on
the same intake that can feed all the pistons, and have 3 T4 turbos.
each turbo is connected to a single 4 barrel and the middle turbo will
be also connected to the single barrel (for fuel efficiency while not
racing). Each waste gate will connected to an electronic controller (i
will build  the electronics since i am studying to be an engineer) and
It will have an electronic fuel pump for the 4 barrel's. while the
single is connected to the mechanical fuel pump. While the engine is
normal driving mode, the middle turbo will feed the single with a
partially opened waste gate to control boost, and will close the other
carbs. when I engage it into different level race modes( based upon
expected power needed) it will allow the use of the other carbs and
turbos based on the selected program. And possibly a NO2 as well for a
real punch. I just want to know if I can make the engine handle the
power, and not bog it out, or blow it up. i also would retro fir the
driveline and chasis to handle the power. Another option would be to
not use carbs, but fuel injection. So, what are your thoughts?
