possibly low. eh, either way doesnt matter i put in some to clear out the thick goopy stuff i prepped the head with, so im gonna drain it all and fill it with my royal purple and put my new filter on. then, if its still on, we have a problem.........actually i just now realized the sending unit probably isnt getting good ground due to the teflon tape. ill solder a wire to it and bolt it to the block.

thanks for all the comments,
civicman, a local guy PnP'ed it plus resurface and regrind valves for only 50 bucks cus he owed my father a favor.

gear, lol yea man id love to but it will shoot flames at my oil return line.

it WOULD, but i hooked up some rubber hoses to a shop exhaust system and the other end a cone over the bottom of the turbo, so no problems.

c2iovoi1c, no read wrong, the oil press. gauge comes with a new unit. i had to put a T in that spot so the oil fed to the turbo also. i had to screw these pieces into each other with teflon tape to ensure a seal. i think that tape is getting in the way of the grounding voltage going through the fittings. so ill fix that with some wire straight to the unit.

but if you had a clue, youd know that the turbo has a feed line, and the gauge has a sending unit (wether its new or original) and so 2 things dont fit in one hole. so a t fitting was used and thus teflon tape used for a gauranteed seal. do you know what teflon tape is?

Dude take another video with the downpipe on. Its pretty much common sence to know that running without a dp or header is gonna be HELLA loud.
I dont hear the cam, i hear an open exhaust!

If anyone wants their car to sound like that, remove your header or downpipe and have fun blowing your ears up!

smuggler, i know he knows. but if he read through before posting, and put two and two together. he wouldnt have made the retarded post he did.

dizzle, you gotta know what your listening for to distinguish the cam. you hear it most RIGHT as i start it up, before it raises the idle because this is at 14oo not 850. at 850 it will be more obvious.


and if you guys wanna refer to something, id prefer a small block chevy over any ford motors lol
