te 51 turbo

[MARINES185]

does any one run one of these turbos and does it really
need a 2800rpm stall speed or does it need more?

Depends some will say it works great with a stock D5 or a 12" 2800 stall and some will say you will need a 9" 3000-3200 stall converter.... If it were me I'd get the 9" 3000-3200 stall converter, but that's just me and I have a TE-44 with a 12" 2800 stall converter....
HTH

I have a 51. It actually felt alright with the stock D5. I'm running a Vigilante now. The car runs alittle hotter. I'll be putting the stock or orange strip back in soon. Need a single disc LU Vigilante?

I have a PTE51 with the D5 stocker. It's alright with some quick spooling options such as the V4, BSTC, and a Maxeffort chip.

When the tranny gets rebuilt the Vigilante single disk "0" pump 3K stall will go in the car.

I have installed several PT51 for customers. One guy was using a mod. D5 converter and it had some lag. Purchased a JW 10" NL converter and loves it. I stick with the TE 44's myself.

I agree with Red. Do a search, you may be surprised!
