    Hi Bison. I'm looking for the specs of a new turbo you sent to Phil at Master Tech Auto in Canandaigua, for my 1987 T, a number of months ago.
    Maybe a 58/58? The returned turbo was "old school" intake + exhaust parts = turbo --- it didn't spool well on my car. Any of your info would
    be appreciated. Thanks. Tom.

    Hey Bison. Trying to get my GN back on the road. I was told by a friend that you port and polish heads. Or might have a set. If so. How much to P/P stock heads. Or sale a Set. Also. Do you have any used turbos (te49). I'm currently running a 44. Thanks John.

    Bison, looking at getting a converter, I see you recommended the 9.5" ptc. Is this something you spec out? I cant call on the phone, currently deployed. Though I do have whatsapp and fb. My email is liquidh8@hotmail.com. thank you

    Hello (Mr.?) Bison, You probably get buried in messages but I was referred to you, so here goes: 87 Restoration, nearly 100% stock (larger injectors), standard bore. Goals (in order): Reliability, Manners, Performance. Have a TA49 which either needs to be rebuilt or replaced. can't find a stock appearing 5858. Do you have a source, or would you go in a different direction? Thanks. Michael in California.

    Hello Bison: Need help: I purchased a new PTE Gen2 68/70mm Turbo for my 87 Turbo T. Balanced and Blueprinted 3.8 stoke stroke w/Champion Aluminum heads/Intake, 218/218, and 83lbs injectors. I have a 3" DP and dual 2.5 exhaust w/3.73 gears, & 2004r and a 3800 stall from Protorque. I can't get it to stall past 2400 before I start to spin the tires.....Eric from TT thinks the turbo could be an issue w/my setup.

    Hey Bison, I'm in the market for a new turbo and I'm thinking about getting either a TE 44 or PTE 5831 and would like for you to give me a price on both as well as your thoughts on the two. Thanks.

    Hi Bison,

    We met at Richard Clarks and I talked to you about doing a build somewhat similar to Steve Bake's. My Thrust bearing was shot and you said I needed to find the cause, possibly the converter. I replaced the cracked stock flexplate with another which I now believe is for an internally balanced engine. I drove the car with it for about 15k miles. Could that have been the culprit?
