TurboFORCE Revival Project



Updated!

Summary

In the late 1970s, Craig Hendrickson (the "H" in "H-O Racing...") designed and engineered a turbocharger installation package for "Gen 2" Firebirds called TurboFORCE. This turbo setup added enormous performance to Trans Am, et al, but has been discontinued since the early 1980s. Recently, two used TurboFORCE packages turned up in Texas. To make things more interesting, Edelbrock displayed at the SEMA show (Nov 2003) an Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) setup (available spring 2004) for the original Pontiac V-8 which was discontinued by GM in 1980. Also at the SEMA show were other significant advances in boosted performance, including compact, efficient intercoolers. Combining these developments with the ever increasing popularity of the "Gen 2" Firebird among Pontiac enthusiasts and restorers, Craig Hendrickson has decided to revive TurboFORCE and bring it into the 21st century.
