Pulled the Jardine exhaust tonight and had a major rattle, it was the exhaust wheel off of the old turbo.

Also got the head on, P/S Vacuum pump installed, trans out, and new firewall insulation installed.

That's impressive.

 

How does one blow up a turbo

 

Trying to get too much boost out of just one...

 

Bet'cha that baby made some noise headin down the pipe ... spinnin real fast.

Hey Don M ... didn't you fish one of those, with the shaft, out of your muffler?

 

Nice photos over at TDR. How exactly did you set that homemade KDP tab?

 

What turbo was that?????

 

I just took a metal spring tab and ground it off to fin in there for the KDP. I also used Red lock tight on all the bolts going to the timing cover.

This was a Hybred HX-50 Was being the ket word. There isn't anything left that could be made into a turbo again without mettling it down and recasting it.

 

I hope I never find one of those.

How many pound pressure plate did you order on that southbend? Is it a street dual or a pulling dual disk?

brandon.

 

Mines kind of half way between. Street friction with the heavy pressure plate 3850 I think

 

....We pulled the exhaust system off of Piers' truck one day, and in the process of weaving up and down to get it out the same kind of part fell out onto the floor...." .... OH that'were that thing went...." he says..

On the down side it tore up his intercooler and other nasty things on the compressor side when it blew up...

The price of playing never stops....
