How big its too big for a single.

Would an HT3B be too big for a single turno or would it work with my setup. I am looking to throw bigger delivery valves in this truck. Also i am oringing the head as soon as i can find the spare change and get to enterprise enging performance.

I would like to find an sps 62/12or14 but have a good deal on this ht3b so im just curious.

U best have

ALOT of fuel to spool that sucker.. Ud probly need timing well into the 20-30 degree range minimum, a crazy flowing pump and major headwork. That turbo will probably not light untill about 2500 plus RPMS

UD be best off with ur 62/14.. some ppl have ran HX 50's or 55's on their trucks and will testify to the same thing i have said...

Not very hard to build twins with that turbo and the stocker. That has been the basic twin setup forever, I built a hotpipe with a divorced wastegate passage in a day or so...

the htb3 is massive for a single, like Rick mentioned you'd need some serious mods to move it.
