not rocket science
Hopefully, by next rally, I plan on having a new engine installed, with fresh paint and freshly detailed components. I am also adding my turbo that I have had for the last 2 years. Its an ATS 088 non-wastegate. My questions are:
Can I install the engine with the turbo setup partially installed?
What is the best way to replace these engines? I am thinking of removing the core support, because my truck is lifted and the hoist at work won't be able to lift it up high enough to clear everything.
I am now working on installing the turbo while the engine is on a stand, just to see if I have everything needed. I am also going to paint the engine "International Red". I'll use the spray booth at work and put a nice layer of paint down. I'm getting psyched, it should look real nice when its finished. Thanks for your help.
