HTT 62/65/13ss or 64/65/13ss opinions wanted?????
Im looking into getting a new turbo and need some advice about which one would better fit the bill. I dont currently have injectors but a set will run along with the new turbo. Im thinkin either new era 370s or new era 435s. I was leaning twards the 435s but am not sure which injectors and turbo would make a better running package. I really dont tow much but was thinking about installing a valet switch so that it would be possible. I know its not going to tow as well as twins but their not in the budget. I just dont want to be afraid to hook up a trailer if I need to tow. any advice is welcome and thanks in advance.
if anyone has either of these turbos I looking for experiences and opinions and also what mods you have to accompany them.

You ever thought about the 71mm wheel instead of the 65mm. I'd opt for the 62/71/13. I believe Dave Dumbar that has the Mobile Dynojet went to one after already having a Hx-35/HT3B twins and was very pleased.

Do you think I could get away with towing with the 64/65/13ss?? I just dont want to have to send my turbo out to get a new wheel put on if I decide that I want to tow with it. It is afterall a truck and I really dont want to make it so that I cant use it as one. I had thought about the 71 series turbos but the guy I talked to a HTT said it was more of a compatition charger and not really that good for street driving. I'm not sure what to do at this point. at the same time as the turbo replacement I was thinking of doing a HTT manifold at the same time.

64s have a problem with surging, especially with automatics.
Another suggestion that I hear is the cats meow is Industrial Injection Silver62. Its can make the power of a 66, but can tow like a 62.

The magic numbers is 20 lbs of boost before 2000 rpms according to HTT. I drove my 64 for over a year before discovering how to make it surge, I had to get into it hard then let off to around 1/2 throttle around 2000 rpms to make it surge- kinda a fluke. Mike D has a 64/12 and a build auto without problems and his is theoritically more likely to surge with the tigher housing.
I think I recall seeing a 64 with downpipe in the dtr classifieds

does anyone have experiences with the 62/71/13SS?? I know the killer 71 is alittle less street manored but I thought it just started spooling a bit later. I a bit confused. The guy from HTT said I needed 100HP sticks for the 62/13 and and 150HP sticks for the 64/13, but other than that I did get much about street driving manors.
