Just because you can doesn't mean you should, BUT, if that's what you want to do, make sure you take a video when you wind that sucker out. I wanna see it!
Frankly though, It doesn't make any sense to me. I guess I kind of like era correct stuff and a turbo doesn't go with a 216 in my head.
If you were using a modern turbo system, stay with a more modern motor. Why would anyone choose an antiquated motor that has so many limitations?
Even if you had an era correct vintage turbo system (if such a thing exists), the 216 sure wouldn't have been the motor of choice back in the day.
It all seems incongruous and kind of a "unusual" exercise. I get it that some folks like to be unusual, which to me is okay if it makes sense. Otherwise it just seems kind of silly.
Now a 302 GMC with a Supercharger might be cool as hell, would stay together if built right, has a "wow!" factor (instead of a "huh?" factor) and will net you some serious speed.
