    I think there may be a vendor that sell milled down vanes to clear the wheel, or they may be redesigned and higher flowing. The pins on the lly turbine are for the 13 blade wheels and fin angle. The gt40 wheel is 10 vane and the pitch is different. I have had the most success using the factory...

    Ok it is expensive becuase you can't just buy the turbine and wheel. lol You need a core lly turbo. You use the lly center and front, buy an 11 blade or batmo lly wheel, balance it to a gt40 turbine in the lly center housing. Then use the new gt40 turbine housing and vanes. You will see the...

    57 Chevy Duramax

    I think you are going to have more time and trouble in attempting to use the bcm vs aftermarket stuff, for very little benefit. The aftermarket stuff is relatively inexpensive and will be more marketable to resell if the project does not work out. You should start by just plugging all the...

    I have ran a gt40 rear half and a 64x88mm lly stock front or 11 blade billet. I have been doing this for over 3 years and multiple turbo's. They whistle out the turbine like a 6.0. You need to tune it like a 4094 vane map. The 11 blade wheel does better with an overspeed condition. Spoolup is...

    Need Help scoring a dyno competition.....suggestions on rules.

    I was going to do: Single cp3 or pump no injectables Dual pumps no injectables Outlaw/open 3 runs, no spikes, best pull of 3. I don't know how to do "stock". I don't want to tech turbo's and there are stoker pumps etc. Its too hard to decide what is stock. I would consider a...

    I wanted to be able to have a huge payout. But I also don'twant anyone to feel lleftout. I have always done classes like Brian said in the past. I was looking at some different options this year. How about the novelty prizes. Does anyone have any suggestions. I could do stock fuel...

    Need Help scoring a dyno competition.....suggestions on rules.

    I was worried about that too, the more rules the more to complain about. Is the stock turbo class stock appearing, or stock cast wheel period, and if so how do you enforce? And you have a built truck from what I have read you post before. So you don't want tuned trucks competing with you...

    Question: triple turbo sizing

    loose housings on atmo's like 27cm or even the 24(iirc) open throats. Something in the 16cm area for the valley with a 45-60mm gate and a lot of the hx52 are t4i, that may be ok for the atmo's but in the valley that will be expensive.

    Need Help scoring a dyno competition.....suggestions on rules.

    I am helping to put on a dyno contest with some really great payouts over $1000 dollars. It is going to replace a fairly large contest that may not go on this year. I need help coming up with a fair way to score the contest so that everyone has a chance to participate and compete. My thought at...

    Question: triple turbo sizing

    An hx60 is basically like an s480. The hx52 can come 2 ways t6 or in rare form a t4. the cheaper ones are probably the t6. But three of the t4 hx50 or 52 will get you in the ballpark of three 475's.

    5 speed drum in a 6 speed??

    Now mike you can do what you think is best. I was talking directly to Dustin and you started on me. My first post was my experience and my opinions. I stated them with candor and without prejudice. Its clear you personally have feelings. Are you going to let those feelings interfere with your...

    Dustin I think that is the glass is half full attitude. I use to have that but lately I kinda lost my way. Thanks for the positive attitude it made me realize to look for the good in things.

    5 speed drum in a 6 speed??

    I agree with that Dustin, and I know you guys are all doing a very nice job with the transmissions. I said breakthrough technology, that is a major leap. It is not just transmissions, or not just trucks for that matter. As a smaller shop we do not have the time, or money to register patents...

    Question: triple turbo sizing

    I always heard the glides and 400's twisted the bell off if you put them behind a dmax. I am doing a 38 chevy with a parallel setup over the winter. We have a 48re but a glide would be great. I may be calling you on that converter! Sorry for the detour op.

    Question: triple turbo sizing

    The rear outlet is tight to plumb, so you may have a point with ricks pedestal being nicer. Did you destroy the thrust bearings in the s366'S on a regular basis?
