[drummersteve7]

and camshaft seals.

I spy raddlecan alluminum paint.

yup you sure do.
how else do you think it was gunna get that clean.
press washer got all the grease off tho.
so this one is painted nicely.

hey do you think this is going to work:
I am trying to run the h23 with no boost at first
I removed the vband and pulled the turbo out.
i made 2 plates and am putting them in the vband. tightened down.
do you think they will leak or should I seal it somehow?

here is pics of what I did:



seems fine to me. if it leaks will be very minimal, I imagine.

[drummersteve7]

well boys and girls.
all is going well.
engine should be going in on monday.
I am pretty sure I have everything I need.
soo woohooo!

no boost for now, but that is just to check engine health.
see ya guys soon. hopefully with black car running.

Dayum, clean a$$ block.

need to throw transmission on, then it is install time.
not sure if it will be done today.

but I am not in a rush. If I get the engine in today, I am still waiting on a few parts.
