Default Found a slug laying around the shop.....

Ivan found this laying around his dads shop. Its supposedly a diesel gmc truck turbo and its flange looks similar to that of a t3 he wanted me to post this up and get your thoughts on this turbo.

here it is compared to his t3

he sent me a thrid pic but it wouldnt work for me(Im assuming its of the flange to the manifold)

Diesel turbo's don't have the compressor sealing like on our turbo's. So you can't really use it on a Gasoline engine. Diesels are designed to burn oil.
