    Hi all,

    I have a brand new garrett tv-73 turbo. Here's what's on the data tag: Model-tv-73.
    Garrett p/n: blank
    Cust p/n 9824252
    S/N Js11701

    I know it has a 76mm compressor wheel. Beyond that, it has a T4 .96 a/r exhaust housing, and the compressor housing has the following cast into it: 1880-1, then some distance away there's a/r .75, then M-24, then B.O. 1

    The centersection has 408752 cast into it. This thing may end up as a single on a 350. Any of you guys have any info on it, like what it might support power-wise, or how robust it's likely to be?

    I can't track your exact turbo but most TV series turbos had M-24 A/R .75 cast into them - regardless of internals. Best way is to take it apart and measure what you have --- Also, All I've seen are T6 variations. .96 - 1.84 but most TV7* are .96-1.08 - measure and report back ---Should work pretty well on a street 350

    It'll work fine. The GT88 is based on a tv73.

    It will work fine for what ? he never said what he wanted to put it on. So would it be good for a 3.8 or a 454 ?

    He calls it the Michal Jackson cocktail. He would be proud knowing he even made an impact on the medical field. lol

    Shit is fast, i lay on my left side and he's behind me so i cant see when he pushes the plunger but i always watch the big clock on the wall to see if i can see how long it takes to go out and i never have yet, last thing i remember is looking at the clock and waking up an hour later.
