SignUp Now!I did a search and found a few, but was wondering what's the fastest a 6776 JB as gone and what was the combo. Side note: I know the 6776 is now old school stuff.Thanks for any input.
Yet to be seen!
Need to add the disclaimer that John Plog's car "delivers".
Very interesting did not think the 6776 had gone that fast from doing my search. Any others.
Has anyone gone that fast on a 3 bolt 6765? I see almost all of the gain being the much better designed ex wheel. Especially when you throw a lot of alky at it. Id bet even if the cast wheel was run with the 65 trim exhaust John could have potentially ran 140+mph at around 26-27psi.Here's the post.

Looks like 9.82 was John Crawford's best ET and 139 was his best MPH.
Freaking flying for a 6776 turbo IMHO.
The 6776 was/is a very capable turbo with the proper bolt ons, but needs to be pushed to make the power. (Meaning 26-32psi depending on the combo)
However, the new Billet 6765 does not have to be pushed so hard to make similar power. It will also keep making power above 30psi where as the older cast 67 wheel starts to taper off at that level.
I like to think of the 6776 as an easy mid to high 10 second turbo on a purpose full weight car with a built stock motor, where as the new billet 6765 is a mid to low 10 second capable unit on the same combo and having high 9 second capability if pushed. As more people get these newer billet units and start pushing the boost, you will see faster times.
