Greetings,
Well, I was taking a closer
look at the turbo fit, and realized that there's still a problem. The
turbo fits the mount perfectly, but it won't clear the Atkins intake that I
bought. Given the choice of one or the other, I'd keep the intake and lose
the turbo, but I'm still trying to figure out a way to have them both.
What I need to do is move
the turbo farther away from the engine, by about an inch. That will allow
it to clear the intake, but not by much. How hard do you think it would be
to have someone fabricate a 1" spacer that would go between the turbo, and the
manifold? Where would you find 1" thick stock for such a spacer?
Would it need to be Inconel, stainless, or ??? It's amazing the trouble
that I can get myself into :-)
Thanks,
Rusty
