I have had this turbo on my car for several years and it has never given me any problems, but I have always thought it spooled a little slow for its size. The person I bought it from years ago told me it was a T04B with a .69A/R. The turbine housing is an on center design with the name...

Holy cow!

using a valve tool like this and scratching up the bores

Are southbend clutches supposed to be better than spec? I was thinking of going with an ACT next.

Yea, and I called spec and since I was out of the 1 year warranty period, they didn't care how it failed, it wasn't their problem. They offered to sell me a new pressure plate for four hundred something directly from them.

This happened to my spec stage 3 from the exact same missed shift scenario:

Its Pipe thread, so any pipe thread sealant (permatex) or teflon tape will work.

Wow, that is a really helpful compilation of all the files. Thank you for posting that!

Doesnt the oil go the other way? Out the crankshaft and into the rod bearing? The bearing will get oil but there is no oiling hole to the piston pin. Edit: the hole in the stock ones sprays oil to the bottom of the piston. Edit #2: I was wrong again, answers are here...

How is the crank pulley? I had one that made a ridiculous amount of noise when it was coming loose. That sounds like it should be something majorly off or broken or loose. Are you sure its not coming from the clutch or anything?

Yea I read about your machine work Doward. I just wish I was a little closer to that area and I might consider having him do mine too. Sounds like a top notch type of shop. The shop I have my engine at right now mainly does sprint car engines, so while I am not concerned about the performance...

thanks for the info guys!

Sounds right, you sound unsure though...:icon_razz

Okay awesome IJ, that is exactly what my machinist told me about the bearing crush becoming excessive. So I take it when people here talk about having clearanecs all within half a thousandth they are linishing each journal individually to attain a specified diameter?

Is it not common practice to resize a new set of rods to attain your desired clearance? My crank is fine, doesnt need any machining, so I plan on just putting it back in as is, with a set of standard clevites and new eagle rods. I told him the clearances that I want my main and rod journals...
