62-1 lives t70 dies

My 62-1 has been flawless for well over a year.I put
a t70 non bb p trim 1.00 exhaust turbo on the car and
it goes thru bearings. I have a street port, 3inch exhaust
and i use a -4 line with a .090 inch nitrous jet constricter
on the oil line. I was told by one shop that a p trim will
kill a t-70 on a rotary. I am trying a q trim this time.
Any body got any suggestions?

That's what puzzles me. Both were built at the same
place.If I have any more probs, I think I'll just get
a t78.

If any of the wheels are out of balance, the bearings will fail prematurely.

Hope this helps.

Damn! 680rwhp, I'd have no life either- I'd kill myself
in that thing. Anyway, they are only using the wheel
this time, so maybe it'll work.
