the dipstick doesnt have 2 studs around the hole.


DOH!!!:nono:


I see now... it's into the "block-wall", NOT below the mount area... I had the pic angle screwed up in my head!:icon_conf


Hmmmm... interesting. Is that "block-off" plate over the "stock location"?

(never had my HEAD down there on mine! it's sorta a "blind" feeler-install for me... engine left in, and all...)

LOOKS GOOD, though!

that is pressurized.

with this mani the return must be to the oilpan.
only way it will work.

the turbo/ manifold setup.
zw manifold, gt76xsuper duplex dbb turbo.

the plan is to shim the pump, and hopefully that will help increase the oil pressure situation.

Does the exhaust manifold work on cars with ABS? (fit) I like the wastegate style like that.

Car looks, good looking forward to VIDEO, of that monsterous turbo. :)

updated pics.

more is back in, and she's running and driving perfectly.
2 small oil leaks i gotta figure out, but other than that its good.

head ended up being cracked near the headbolt (most likely from overtorquing the head), which was the reason why coolant was in my pcv.

also, engine need a new crack, it was cracked on the # 3 rod.

Lesson learned. don't overtorque your headgasket, and keep your car full of oil.
