PT67 Converter?

[mjdwyer23]

What stall converter would I need with a pt6776? I'm thinking about a conventional or dual ball bearing one, anybody care to weigh in? Thanks!

3500 w/ TE67

I run a 3500 Pat's l/u converter with a Limit TE67. 50/50 street/ strip car but completely streetable. I could have probably gone with a little higher stall and still been happy on the street. Lot's of opinions out there so figure out what you want to accomplish and what your power build will be. Call Steve at Pat's if you want to. He will ask you for your engine specs and what your plans are and then recommend a converter. My goal is mid 10's in full trim with the a/c on! Good luck.

The non ball bearing version needs a converter that can flash stall to least 3400 to spool it up decently. However, the dual ball bearing version really only needs a 3000 flash stall converter. My buddy Don Mudrich currently runs the Dual Ball Bearing version on his GN, he has an Art Carr 9" non lock up 3400 stall converter and it spools this turbo (PT6776RLHP) instantaneously.
Like all P-trim turbine wheel equipped non ball bearing turbos, 3400-3500 stall is the general consensus. Dual Ball Bearing is a whole other ball game. Pardon the pun. 3000-3200 will definitely get the job done right.

Thanks for explaining that. I had heard about ball bearing turbos but did not look into it when I bought mine. Maybe I should have.

An AC 3000 stall non locking converter will spool that BB turbo very fast even with a .85ex on a 231ci. A 2800 would work also but you would be better off with the smaller ex. housing.

Pat's 10" 3500 l/u here. works great.

I've got a 10"/3000 in mine and it seems to work well.

Artie, I think we've talked about this one before. I have a real Art Carr 3200, and if i can do ok with a regular bearing turbo then I'll go for it, but the general consensus seems to be 3400+.
