Soooo turbo yet?

Soooo turbo yet?

If I had that 1 quick OT is do it.

Issue is I need either custom manifolds or 750 dollars in manifolds to get started.

I should probably start hunting used and maybe get lucky

Does it have a single big manifold or separate ones? I know a guy that can weld some shit it may not look pretty but it will work

Seems pretty straight forward, buy and ask forgiveness later normally works for me lol

That will likely happen over winter. I just space it out and no biggie.

Just can't buy it all at once.

China turbos are cheap and I don't need anything fancy.

That bearing is not so good. If the crank is smooth at least get new bearings. The old ones will have std or.10 or the like on the backside. If the crank looks bad I'd at least get it polished. Your oil pressure will thank you.

 

[EmersonHart13]

The motor isn't coming out. If it is something else is going in instead and I don't have that available right now. Really I just need it to stop puking oil.

Oil pressure is currently good per very accurate dash gauge and the engine runs well enough though a Turbo would make it better.

So its funny you mention that (I was checking parts list in eBay ad while you posted.). Because that is about where this thing is headed, to that altitude. I have some parts for that too, just fixing oil leak while its up in the air and easier to service.

did you just go with RTV to seal it up ?

 

[EmersonHart13]

I haven't sealed yet. Plan is to do that as soon as possible but as usual really busy. I also want to give the pan a quick coat of pain so leaks will be easy to find and might as well freshen it up while I can.

I do plan to try the smear of rtv on both sides of the standard gasket with a dab in the 4 corners since it is a 4 piece set.

Paint the pan you say...

Yessir. Total
