new seal put in today, doesn't leak anymore. test drove... feels pretty strong.

i would like to get it dyno'd soon and make another track appearance on a cold day =]

the only thing that sucks is that i work til 6 on weekdays, and it would probly take me at least an hour just to get to the track.... but i'll figure something out.

looks good.

you dont have problems from turbine housing temperatures/ radiating heat saturating the upper radiator hose, and subsequently the coolant? I see some type of wrap/ sleeve on it but is that enough to cope with 1000 degrees of heat for an extended period of time.

I'd be worried about that also. Re-routing that coolant plumbing shouldn't be too difficult.

those pics are kinda old, before the car was running. i re-routed the coolant hose way before i started the car up for the first time.

hum, my mildly built 302 in my short bed f150 + a turbo or two = one sick truck and its a 4x4 so it would come out of the hole like no other.
