hey all, just wondering if anybody is running a pte 70 gtq with 85 Exh? how do you like it? how much is the difference between a 63 housing? does anybody run anything in between?

thanks
 
All depends on the size of Converter you use. The Tighter or lower stall go with the .63 and the higher stall go with the .85 for that extra MPH..
 
Running a .63 is defeating the purpose of what you are trying to do with a 3 bolt 70 GTQ. I dont see the point. The exhaust side is the limiting factor even with a .85 housing. All the TSM cars ive seen all had .85 housings. Id just run a smaller exhaust wheel or a BB cartridge rather than a 70 GTQ with a .63 if i was worried about spool up. If its a journal bearing it will need a 3800 stall on a 231. The 70GTQ is not needed until you plan on trapping at least 137mph.
 
thanks guys, just wondering.... i am running the 85 with a loose 3800. runs good. just had it in my mind for quite some time now. most people went with the BB. i think i'll stick to my set up.
thanks again
