turbo
stock CFM for the carb is 315 +-
If you were to run 15 psi boost you would need roughly twice that. (say 600 cfm)
This is clearly in the range of typical Holley carbs. A vaccum secondary such as a 3310 (750 cfm) would be likely to suit this setup since the scondaries will only open as needed. With 15 psi of boost you had better be thinking of how to intercool it or at least set up a boost triggered water injection. keep us posted on you progress. Once you get it running be sure you creep up in one pound increments of boost and do many many plug checks to detect detonation. Remember you are trying to build a performance engine, not a grenade.

The stock FC turbo manifold can be adapted to fit the 12a. There are write-ups on it, may even be in the archives. Sounds like you need to do a lot more research and searching, and buy the book on turbos by Corky Bell. Maximum Boost
If you are looking for more than 6-8 psi, you will need to do a blow-through system, with an intercooler.
Good luck.
