Thread: Just Ran the new figures

oil is primed, distributor is in. fuel pump works, I had a little mess of fuel, forgot to unplug the relay b4 I turned the key on, fuel pump probably pumped a quart or so b4 I figured out it was pumping. started plumbing the hot ( Turbo inlet ) exhaust side. gonna be tight, it's going back by the starter, sideways, exhaust will exit out the fenderwell, then down around to the factory exhaust locations. IDK what I'm doing about the turbo inlet to the air filter, but I'll figure somthing out.

Hey, Matt, if you keep using that textmessaging lingo, us old dudes won't know what you're talking about.

Seriously, how about a picture of what the area looks like from inlet to air filter (maybe an overhead view using a ladder??) and maybe one of the guys can come up with a quick solution for you.

IDK just means I don't Know. anyway, I found a soloution, a 180 u manderel bend cut in half will give me the 90* tight radius I need for clearence, add a cone filter to the end of it and bingo.

Another student helping me with the car yesterday, drove to boces and stayed an hour or so later than me, and finished the hot side exhaust piping. it's ready to get towed home, got a tow truck coming to pick it up for $40 flatbedded.
