To anyone that is going to use the thunderbird turbo. You are going to have too keep the intake housing within a 1/4 turn from stock. The turbos do not have a 360 degree thrust bearing and I havebeen going thru oil seals because of this.
just something to think about!!!!

Thanks for this tip Andrew, I am kinda spoiled with the 2.2 TO3s, I spin the housing around many different ways on those with the only limit being where you can remount the waste gate pull-off diapham.

Hows the Turbo business going? It's reall a tough time to try to start a business, no-one seem to have much extra $$ these days. (including me : - (
