Help!!!

[mikesmazda155]

I am in the middle of my turbo install and I can not find where a good place is to tap into the oil supply. Any help is appreciated...

Get under your car, as you are looking up look tot he left of the oil filter and up there is a small one wire sensor there it is your stock oil pressure sensor. Take it out, tap the hole with a 1/8th NPT tap and use a tee fitting to tap into the oil supply and you are good to go.

Once again life saver, I can see that I will be in contact with you more in the next couple of days... One other thing I have a problem with my O2 housing conector on the turbo hitting the 2 steel lines be hind the manifold, what kind of fabrication did you come up with to relieve the problem. Also the themostat housing and the line going to the radiator from the block.

I custom fabbed my entire kit i had to I was about to build the kit around those things. I built a custom O2 housing and downpipe for my application.

One more thing, what kind of material was your manifold made out of, I remember you had a crack in your old manifold, I think that I will have to make another one. What is the best material to use?

Mike, what exhaust manifold and downpipe are you using?

 

[mikesmazda155]

Well the exhaust manifold was custom made, the only problem is the holes are not linning up to the holes on the engine. The down pipe is going to be custom for the T-28 (yes I am going to run the T-28 until I build the engine) now the O2 housing for the T-28 is a pain in my ASS. But the guy that is doing all my welding is going to make me a tubular manifold, I am hopping it works. That is why I am trying to find out what kind of material is used on the manifolds.
