there is alamo turbo, DPS, Big dog, and a few others. Alamo is mainly turbos and might have the better price. Look on e-bay also. i have seen lots on there.

Thanks Dodger I was at Big dog on Friday just waiting on there prices. The eBay route always scares me a bit with the turbos. some of the HX-40 s on there are dogs and they know it, they are trying to dump the on the dodge guys as ones that will fit our trucks .I will phone Alamo turbo on monday
Thanks again by the way

Don't forget the classifieds here. You'll see a HX40 or a 62mm Schwitzer pop up from time to time.

I have two brand new cheap HX-40 available. I have to Two different compressor impeller and turbine sizes housings. I have two new ones and HX-40 core that you could repair is also available. I also have few other types of turbos available but they would take some work to install. I would try one and see if you like. We could even work out a trade as I keep breaking stuff on my truck so I almost need everything except these turbos. There are just sitting in my garage collecting dust.
