Re: Brian's Turbo Build (Lots of Pics)

this garrett turbo does.



others too. obviously theres one that will work for the f-body fairly well or i doubt ur50slo would make em with a three bolt flange.

Thats for the compressor not the turbine. The turbine appears to have a regular 4 bolt flange.

I think the older GN turbos have the 3 bolt triangle flange for the hotside.

Yep.. All GN turbo's for the stock headers have 3bolt flange. Mine is still a 3bolt on my car with a 76GTQ turbo and 5" downpipe.

Ok huge bump from my last post in here. I have begun powdercoating. Have a few samples and a few products done and sold. All in all its going good . If anyone is interested in powdercoating let me know via PM.

But back to the topic at hands. My build.

I was doing a little winter cleaning and somehow my UIM got bumped and knocked off a table landing on the studs where the intake and throttle body connect. Needless to say a few choice words were spoken to any and all within earshot distance. Drove to Autozone, Advance Auto, and Lowe's came up with nothing. Even tried to get threaded rod. So I bit the bullet and went to the dealership. One screw is $4.25 , and I need two, both are completely wasted. I also was able to buy an oil pan , just waiting on it to get here. It'll get powder coated chrome. Pics will come when done.

(The valve cover I did)

Well Im making extremely slow progress. I got an oil pan, stripped it to bare metal and powdercoated it:

you should have waited till after you drilled into it for the drain fitting, either way looks good!
