Kulper620 Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Has anyone one her built a box around their webber for a turbo setup, not sure what I need to do to make it work Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Go to the salvation army or second hand store and look for a pressure cooker. They are aluminum. The base can be drilled to bolt to the intake with the carb inside. A few holes for gas and throttle cable etc. The top twists on and locks down. They can contain tremendous pressure. The lid is easily removed. 1 Quote Link to comment
Dolomite Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Search it on Google, there's a good amount of info on pressure boxes, can't remember any links though. It was a good while ago that I was researching the subject. Quote Link to comment

620Turbo4X4 Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 No disrespect, but poping the hood and seeing a pressure cooker is f*ing hilarious!!! Good cheap idea though... I don't know of anybody that makes a pressure box for the 32/36 anymore. This would be something you would have to fab yourself. Most guys use a top hat and just live with leaks at the throttle shaft and choke linkage... Quote Link to comment
dr.feltersnatch Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 i have been told you will keep blowing gaskets if you run just a top hat. Quote Link to comment

Jester Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Better than a pressure cooker anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment
Kulper620 Posted March 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Is that a freakin ammo box Quote Link to comment
620Turbo4X4 Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 The hardest part about the pressure cooker would be keeping your friends from filling it with meat and potatoes! lol Seriously though, try keeping an eye on eBay for one. Something might come up. Quote Link to comment
harlow426@mail.com Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Better than a pressure cooker anyway. The ammo box idea is great!! Readily available, sturdy, recyclin'/re-purposing @ it's finest. I am going 'log' this idea in my harddrive. I often toss my frozen burrito on the intake to warm it up..... Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 I think Icehouse on here built one Quote Link to comment
EricJB Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 You will also need a rising rate fuel pressure regulator, so the fp stays a few lb's ahead of the box pressure. Quote Link to comment
Jester Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 I often toss my frozen burrito on the intake to warm it up..... My daughter and I use to do that with our Jeep out wheel'n. Everyone else would be eating cold sandwiches and we had a nice hot meal. Those inline 6's had lots of room for two. Quote Link to comment
