Default PT67 vs PT76... ?

So, I'm at a crossroad...

Car:

05 GTO m6
Stock internals 364 LS2
~238/242 115 +3 (blower cam)
Custom heads flowing ~310 (243 castings, 921 springs) (compression is guessed to be in the 11.5:1 range )
1 3/4" headers (OFI kit has tubular headers)


With a D1-sc 3.7" pulley + ECS restrictor plate car (5.5psi at 6850) made ~550/500 on the local heart breaker mustang dyno (pre heads). Clutch gave up on the run with the heads (was lookin to tag 600+ with a couple more PSI).

I got bored and decided to go with the OFI kit. My dilemna is, 67 or 76...
I don't know exactly what my motor flows, and that's why I can't exactly look at the efficiency maps and go by that.
Knowing the pistons/rods are stock, will a 67 be able to flow enough to grenade the motor??? Will I even be able to spool the 76 before I shift at 6850 (don't want a supra...)? Maybe a 72gts would be a wise compromise?
Am I barking up the wrong tree with this cam either way I go???

Car is a DD and my main choice of poison is the roll-ons we have here in vegas. I hurt alot of feelings with the Procharger, but want to try something else, and possibly achieve a bit more tq to make the car even more lethal. Can anyone chime in? Again, I don't want the car to act like a 100mm supra.

Regards,
Jon Cain

A 67 is enough to put your stock bottom end on borrowed time. However, a 76 will be more fun after you blow the stock motor and rebuild with forged parts. And yes, you will be able to spool a 76, but obviously not as early as a 67.

6.0 liters = no smaller than a T76

I'm looking at getting rid of my 76 for an 88. Jon here in town had a 67 on a car and managed to puke the turbine wheel right out the exhaust from over speeding it at 13psi on a stock 346 motor.

That's the thing though Jeremy, I'll only be playing with 8psi or so... what about the 72 as a mix?

using stock consumption chart
http://www.forcedinductions.com/consumption364.htm

8psi, 1.54 PR, 59lbs at 6500. i drew the red lines using this info (the cross hatch is my mark for 3500 RPM (32 pr). i think my motor consumes alot more than 60 though..



76 looks more effecient. 66 looks like it falls off quick

Go no less then a 76. If you are looking for one on a budget you go with a TC76.

Looks like the t66 would spool alot quicker than the T76. Which makes it better for the street but worse for the strip.also u would need alot more boost for a certain power level with the T66 vs The T76.
