3LM-299 VS 3LM-33 How do they compare?

I’ve searched all over online and cannot find measurements for these two turbos. I have a 3LM-299 and can measure it, but cannot find the measurements for a 3LM-33. I am planning to put one of them on a 4430 (out of field puller) with stock fuel pump and a few turns on the screw. Of course it’s too late to call any shops till Monday. If the 3LM-299 will work then I can bolt it on today and keep making progress. But if the 3LM-33 is a better option then I will get one on order. |

Following up in case somebody needs this info in the future. 3LM-299 is about a 1.9” inlet and the 3LM-33 is about 2.03” inlet. |

I had a 3lm 33 on a 4430 it ran ok in farmstock with 300 cc of fuel . How is availability on them? I saw where fair valley had offered them on their website with cast or billet compressor wheel. I was thinking the inlet was more around 2 1/4”…. |

Guenther Heritage Diesel Injection in Illinois can get them. He said they were backordered for several years though and availability just opened up recently. |

I just ordered another one for restock, and the warehouse had a few left. The inlet of that turbo is 2.05". Any other sized inlet is a custom modified turbo, that would be much more expensive. Thanks for your business Jerry! |

It looks like the 3lm 33 has the inlet option of 2.05 or 2.3” per fair valley diesels website |
