    Coolant and oil feed for turbo

    Do you guys know what are the specs (thread size and pitch) of the oil and coolant holes on the front of the engine block used for the turbo on the BP's?

    Any ideas on what would be the best way to plumb my turbo? Problem is I don't have a GTX manifold and IHI turbo. All custom. Are there any barbed fitting or braided line I could use that would directly screw in the block?

    Thanks for helping!

    Well, if you want, you can always pick up the banjo bolt that the turbo oil line uses to go into the block.

    B660-14-615

    It's the same as the 88-89GTX, so it should be carried at the dealers. However, last time I checked, I think I got the last one in the entire inventory system.

    If you get that, it will have the proper thread and everything, so you can use it to help you make an oil line.

        That's good. I was pretty sure they weren't gonna keep zero around, anyway.

          I called and they wanted like $30 for the bolt. Forget that, I am making my own

          while you're out there, you might as well adjust your air/fuel ratio by smell... and your tire pressure by ride height
