well after hours of slowing grinding the block away, the turbo fits just fine.....now i just gotta worry about my oil feed fittings to the turbo, i couldnt find a 1/8 to 3/16 reducer so i made this long fitting jibberish for now lol.


Ill have pictures later, i gotta clean up the turbo cuz it has block particles everywhere heh

 

I havent been on much lately, what manifold/turbo was this?

 

Hey Steve, Got pic of before and after.... with the turbo mounted on and off.

 

Good to hear that it all worked out. Another battle won for A/C users.

 

i have a before pic.....well when i was having a hard time fitting it....ill go snap a pic right now

 

I dont know how the hell you made that fit, but good job!

 

good to hear that you didnt give up and sell the turbo.

 

man congrats.
when i saw the pic before, i was like ummmmm
yeah that's not gonna fit
but u work your magic!

 

definitly take pictures dawg. congrats

bling bling!

 

i cant proceed w/ the install cuz i got something in my ****** eye....and cant see ****, and i dont have the right size return line flange bolts....they arent 8mm x 1.25 like i thought, they are a tad bigger, anyone know?

 

Glad to hear that it fits...mind coming and cutting my block up for me?

 

lol, it took many hours and lots of dremel wheels haha.....

 

Are they 10x1.25? Or not that large?
Maybe just 8x1.50?

 

I think I remember using SAE standard bolts for the oil return flange.

 

ill just bring the damn turbo into the store tomorrow and test fit, hehe


thanks brad, without you man, i wouldnt have had the ***** to shave the block, hehe

 

bout damn time, it was like convincing a virgin to go all the way.

glad you are happy now that your cherry is broken

 

he got a cherry ?

 

i just think he was scared to get dirt under his nails, might mess up his manicure

 

yeah, he must've gotten it when he went tanning LOL

 

bitches bitches, always gotta be hatin' on mr cheap bling.

 

Congrats man: I was scared for you there for a while

 

Any pics yet of your shaved down block? Show us your handywork

 

You must have some big ***** to shave that much.

 

i started to shave my spare block lastnight... it looks like im gonna be able to squeeze mine on aswell!!!!!!!!! well see by monday night if i will be able to.. the main prob is gonna be by the inlet... because you cant shave to far in because there is the bolt hole behind it..ill see.
