Clay is the man

I just wanted to reaffirm how great Clay is. I expressed worry about the reliability of my TN BB in a theory about 15 minutes ago, and Clay came through with a replacement part that he offered incase I need it.

Thanks Clay, You definitely are good people

Nice offer Clay. Like I said in your other thread, I may be getting a used one. I was under the impression that the TN BB couldn't be rebuilt and they are out of business, which makes me think twice about buying it. If you don't mind me asking what kind of replacement parts can you get for it or what can be fixed?

I agree, Clay can get you everything you need, even if you don't know that you need it.

haha ^^ good one

Canister, I believe that the middle (the part that breaks) can be completely replaced, but it cannot be repaired. When I upgrade I will make sure to pass on the favor clay did.

Thanks, does anyone know where to get the parts? If I know I can replace the BB I'd feel a lot more comfortable buying the used one?

I can get them for you, but can't remember the part number off the top of my head.

if Clay can find you parts buy 2 if your keeping the turbo..the part will get you back on the road but does not cure why the seals blow..if it did cure the problem..TN would still be selling them turbo's..

Thanks, I'm probably going to just pass on the TN BB and get an ATS housing for my van turbo for now.

Big sticks + TN BB = Blown seals. The TN BB just can't handle high drive pressures. Mine blew while passing another vehicle at about 35 PSI of boost.

I don't know why he's the MAN!

He cost me three hundred some odd dollars with one call to him the other day.

I guess he's allright.
