    correct way to install coolant and turbo oil line gaskets?

    I havent read anything that says which side the sealant material should be turned towards but I installed mine facing the turbo housing. But I also cover the gasket on both sides with a fine layer of silicone gasket maker just in case.

    I give the dude credit, its diff and SBC parts are cheap as hell, this is the same plan I had for mine before I found a cheap 7m. Plus 400 out of a 350 chev is easyier then a 7m.

    E3 spark plugs??

    Horsepower on SpikeTV done a dyno test on them and did gain power and fuel economy, but I still think its all hype. One guy on a Tacoma forum Im on tried to push these saying you'll gain x amount of power and gain x amount of mpg but couldnt back it up. Ive tried them and honestly lost mpg...

    Anyone run Master Power turbos?

    Ive also seen the T70's with the .68 hot side, you think this would be too agressive of a turbo on a stock rebuild with fuel upgrades?
