    Super Charged, has multi port fuel injection, and from what I can see of the exhaust manifolds it is a Chevy 350. Has GM HEI ignition and the master cylinder looks Corvette like. That’s all I can say for now.

      L48 Turbo – Prototype. Yup a corvette! (1978)

      t was hi-tech for back then. Chevrolet has engineered a detonation sensor into the ignition system exactly the way Buick did in its turbo V-6. A tiny transducer listens for the onset of pre-ignition then signals the distributor to retard the spark timing long before any damage is done. Since this arrangement keeps spark advance right at the knock limit, the system is always maximized to use every last bit of the octane you’ve pumped into the fuel tank.

Let me hear from you!!! Drop a note!!
