Now
that you mention it, I remember seeing something like that long ago.
Reminds me of Smokey and the Bandit II (I think) when Burt was floating ideas
about a cannonball ride..."How about a Chevy with a pair of sidewinder
missles?"

Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] Z-16 in Hot ROD
I have an ad from 1965 (1965 Z16 with turbo rearend) with the turbo rear end. It bolted to the rear and produced some great ET's. according to the ad the stock z16 produced 1350 HP to rear wheels and was officially timed @ 149 mph @9.95 ET. the turbo-axle was produced by Turbonique, inc. Their address was 20 North Kent Street - Orlando, Florida 32805.the ad states that when you flip the turbo ignition to standby , your throttle foot can call for that extra power when you need it - and you get it instantly, because the time lapse from ignition to full turbine power was 1/20 of a second.the time of 9.95 seconds was @ the Dallas , Georgia Dragstrip July 24, 1965. This probably was the fastest Z16.
