Ford Model A with a supercharged and eight turbo SBC V8

This custom Ford Model A received a lot of attention while on the Hot Rod Power Tour 2018. The unique hot rod is powered by a Chevy small-block V8 with a FiTech Go EFI 8 1200HP system, Weiand 6-71 supercharger, and eight Kubota tractor diesel turbochargers. The drivetrain consists of a manual transmission and Ford 9-inch rear end. You get to hear the engine run at the end of this video or view more photos at BangShift’s FB page.

    Love to see boost and EGT readings on this engine. Normally the diesel turboes start at a 1.5L engine so with less than that displacement per cylinder the SBC should work great setup with these.

    1. doubt the turbos do much besides creating chu-chu noises, effective silencers and plumbing issues 😀 But I love projects like this, done just ‘because’.
