oil mod on early turbo
posted this in the engine rebuild over the weekend without a response so i figured i would try it here...
In the process of rebuilding a 1976.3.0 row turbo. I have been reading past post and watching videos . according to what I have read and watched this is a simple mod and should be done. all i see and read only mentions one hole to block .. Well my case has two holes the big one that is normally blocked a a second smaller hole under it see picture.. So what's the correct course of action. I do have the later turbo pump and oil restrictors on the cam housings so oil in the sump should not be an issue . but i would like the extra oil pressure So is this mod usually done on the Early turbos? and if so what do i do with the second hole ? ![]() Last edited by gorskined; 12-09-2019 at 05:22 AM.. |

Gorski,
You should probably cross post to the engine rebuilding forum. Rahl |

If you bump the thread to the top every three days someone will eventually reply that knows. Another suggestion would be to e-mail or PM Henry Schmidt. Very friendly guy. Go to the engine rebuilding forum,scroll down the starter column and you will eventually find his name. Open the thread and left click on his name on the far right /top. e-mail link and PM will come up.
