10 sec setup

Ok guys i ordered my turbo from cotton CPT66 with a 3bolt .82 housing. What does the .82 and .62 housing mean? I also go the P wheel, whats that mean also? Now that ive got that turbo i cant run the bluetops? If not who sells the 65lbs that work with my stock computer. Also i plan to get a 3500 stall. I sent for a hotwire for my fuel pump. Dont know whats in there, but i can see if it keeps up before i swap right? Can i run the 2800stall i have?

May i suggest Fullthrottle

Touque converters

Injectors

Great people to deal with.

As far as running the 2800 stall with that turbo i think would have a bit too much lag and higher stall would complement it much better.

Good luck with it,
Mike

With that turbo you want like a 3300-3600 stall. I also talked to him, and a hotired 340 would be pushing it...

That's a bit loose, no? I'm thinking a 3200 should be good. The 3500 range would seem more suited to a T70 of sorts. Agreed on the fuel pump though. 11's, yes. 10's, no.

One should easily be able to pump enuf fuel to break into the tens with one pump....and with alky...further...

Ask Grumpy again what he runs with a 340 and alky

ok i talk to jack cotton he said a T66 is to much if i want to enjoy street driving with a stock long block. So im getting a T61. Now i got to get the injectors,and stall. Think i will get the stall first, thats so i can put engine, and trans back in when they get here. So a 3300 stall is ok for a 61 right,or to much? Someone give me a link to the place for the chip, and inject.

Get a set of 50-55-57-60 high-Z injectors, a walbro 340 w/an Accufab FPR and a TurboTweak chip & have some fun with the 61 turbo.

Lots of folks have enjoyed a 61 turbo with the stock D5 converter w/zero probs, including several years w/one for me.

A new higher stall-speed converter with a 61 is not mandatory.
