These aren't pics of turbos, but thought somebody might like to see what a forged bottom end looks like



















(these pics are lost)

Why did you pull your oil pan? Everything still A-ok with the truck?

you don't run a bottom-end girdle?

See: this post but instead of a milodon pan, I went with moroso

The single oil pump couldn't handle the boost

I exposed the crank to do some visual checks (first time I've pulled anything apart since the build). I don't run a girdle -- there was nothing available when I did the build -- and I don't see anything in a quick check now - do you have a link? I'll probably add one on the next rebuild though.

I should say it couldn't handle twins It was backing up and smoking when I let off.

Almost ready to put it all back together.

New twin oil pumps mounted.
New twin remote oil filters mounted.
New oil pan 85% completed (haven't put in the oil level sensor or repainted it).

I keep screwing up ordering the damn fittings... Hopefully I will make the lines before Thursday.

Now if this damn snow will just melt... Mabye I can mount a high hp snowblower in front of each rear wheel


I've also run into a hug problem with the coating. I will post more as I can, but there's some down time in my future to allow for recoating almost everything.

I was going to ask you how that was coming along (coating issue?)
