8st Turbos på en v8a

Lite info:

Sandlin Motorsports broke the mold of traditional hotrods when they built their GM Torch Red '57 Chevy. What is an old Heavy Chevy doing on Overboost? Sometimes exceptions have to be made when a car is just too damn over-the-top to be ignored and are decision will make sense if you keep reading.


The Chevy has a cleverly unique nickname, the Inciner8or. When talking old muscle, that could mean a lot of different things. Inciner8or could be because the car is an eight-cylinder. That's way too obvious. After popping the hood, even the short-bus-riding Overboost staff could figure out that the eight was referring to the eight Borg Warner KKK turbochargers proudly displayed on the front of the engine. Oh, you did read that properly, EIGHT turbochargers. Like one for each cylinder and four times as many as a twin-turbo Supra.


There are about a million different, cheaper ways to get 730 horsepower from an LS1 engine, but none of them can match the shock factor involved with running an eight-turbo system. Looking at all of the plumbing it took to get the Borg Warner turbos mounted is the automotive aftermarket world's equivalent of looking at the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. Each pipe was bent perfectly, then polished or powdercoated.

To keep up with that kind of airflow a F.A.S.T. 600 lb/hr fuel pump keeps petrol running past billet fuel rails and then through 65 lb/hr injectors. The serious fuel delivery system that could empty a swimming pool in less than an hour is controlled by a F.A.S.T. electronic engine control with C-Com software.

The exterior might appear traditional, but a closer examination reveals Corvette door handles, a custom-built steel cowl induction hood and smoothed front and rear bumpers mounted flush against the body. Intake ducts to keep all eight huffers fed with cold air were incorporated into the front bumper while the exhaust exits through custom openings in the rear bumper. Another subtle trick used on the '57 is polished stainless steel trim with carbon fiber sail panels on the side of the Shoebox. (This is getting scary; domestic guys are using turbochargers AND carbon fiber now – OVB)

From the 18-inch American Racing Torque Thrust wheels all the way down to the C4 Corvette suspension, this old Chevy is an incredible mix of classic taste with modern technology. Love it or hate it, the Sandlin Motor Sports Shoebox definitely deserves all of the second, third, fourth and fifth looks it has been getting at the 2004 SEMA Show.
