I got that tab- Ok- i'll orient it that way. That puts the raised circle to the outside- facing the turbo

I was wondering wgich way the manifold to turbo gasket goes- the square one with the perfectly round hole in it. One side is mirror smooth, the other side has a raised lip around that round hole. Does it matter? Thanks.

Usually on the sides(the narrow sides not shown in your pics) there are 'Z' shaped punch marks across the rod and end caps. That should help you reorient the pieces.

I like pudding. NO WAIT! I DON'T WANT A WEEK OFF! Just kidding. ON subject- I'm still considering this turbo if the performance outweighs it's flapper design flaw, vs. a 57trim CT26 and it's alleged weaker shaft.

Generally, people use a weld-on -AN bung to connect a hose like that. Check Aeroquip, Earl's, Summit, Jeg's, etc.

330,000 and counting.

My throttle pedal's upper mounting point busted a few years ago, and the upper bolot itself partly stripped, so that I couldn't take it out. It made for a very flimsy throttle, that would essentially bend sideways, and almost get in the way of the brake pedal. I finally decided to fix it, And I...

I'm with Bombinuass- What have you done with the PCV system?

I have a 140 amp alternator, and haven't seen any difference over the stock unit. Alot of the time, the amp rating these guys talk about is at a certain temp and a certain rpm, and it can be misleading.

When you say timing is checked, you mean you've verified the CPS tooth position? Because it's sounds an AWFUL lot like your cps is retarded by one tooth.

I say get an aluminum radiator that accepts the OEM fan shroud. It will solve any cooling issues you may have. If for some reason you're not satisfied, Then go with electric fans and all the wiring, sensors and relays. : )

Well?

Soldered in a 5-bulb led to the oil- just as bright as the others now.

LOL- you've heard that? : ) They do, but they're price is $5.60 each. That's over $2.00 more expensive per shim than Cylinder head supply.

Here's an update of my own- cheaper than even Goodson.com, and very fast shipping. http://cylinderheadsupply.com/valve-clearance-discs-25mm.html

Lol. 'IIRC' is not an abbreviation for a cooling system part- It means "if I recall correctly"- as in, If I recall correctly, the AC fans come on at 210+. Problem is- I'm not sure if I am recalling correctly. And as JetJock is pointing out- IF you have a good fanclutch, and IF your MHG is...

Please get a pic up with you and the car... it's...a requirement that you do...in order to stay on the forum...

The bucket itself might be causing the lockup- have you tried checking the freeplay with the shim bucket on?? Oops- i take it back- looks like one pic shows how the valve is depressed without the bucket.

It's really simple. As Shaeff said- You strip the new shielded wire till you have access to the core wire, and splice that into the wires coming off the two OX wires out of your ecu, solder and heatshrink wrap it. Leave a bit of length to the shielding wire, twist it into a lead, and solder a...

Get a controller. The condenser fans(IIRC) don't come on unless you exceed 210 degrees, or if you have ac on. Or- if you want more reliable cooling, get a stock fan and clutch.
