Hey mike, what kind of boost were you pushing to pop them gaskets....so I know to keep it below that with this T 70 I have on the car now.

thanks Chirs.

Chris, we can do the exact same hot side as your current 70 with a 76mm cold side and we can go one up and go BB as well if you want quicker spool.

Not really more compact in size, since it still uses the standard 4" inlet -2.5" outlet, but compact in prize

Bolt up just like a T70 John, which is just awesome because they'll fit damn near anything and make good power.

I love LS1 Tech... you let a thread run and guys with lots of experience post up, and when you look at the medium of what everyone posts... you can bet the its fact!

Personally I am with PurEvl... I have a T67 and did 607RWHP @ 11.5 lbs on my stock block... could have done more if my rings woulda held the boost. So I think a 70 on a forged block could see 700+ no problemo

Spiking to 700rwhp and sustaining 700rwhp are 2 different things.

I'm driving up to Revxtreme on the Saturday of Labor Day weekend. I could pick up the LS6 cam to bring back right that weekend. Then, for the MPT-70 and .96 housing, I could probably have it shipped to me from Revxtreme, if I ask them, a couple of days/weeks later as they get through tearing down my stock block. Is that good time for you?

They are a T-netic hyrbid unit. Prices for the standard 76 is <1000 and for the ball bearing is <1400.

I'm gonna try and run my T-70 then, and see how it works out with the new forged 347 and higher boost. Even if I max that baby out, we'll see what it is really capable of! I can't wait to get a 76 on the cold side with ball bearings.
