Got the 66 put on today. Got the back plate machined, wheel swapped, everything balanced, everything cleaned, and new seals for $175. Thanks goes out to John at Majestic turbo. This turbo has 50k+ miles on it and the thrust washer and journal bearings looked brand new.
As for spool up, it's definitely slower but it's not bad. I can't give a good comparison because I sent my ADR off yesterday to be worked on so I'm running on sticks only and 2, I've only put maybe 3 miles on it since I've done it. Stupid austin traffic and school zones. I honestly don't see a problem spooling this thing once I get the box back on but time will tell. I definitely wouldn't want to run this thing without a cam. I think once I get the ported manifold on and the turbo and manifold blankets on this thing will spool up just fine.
I'll keep yall updated.
