im doing a sc50 pecision turbo. the turbo does not use coolant just oil i just want to be corrected if im wrong but shouldnt i just loop the stock coolant lines instead of plugging them cuz i dont wanna pop my head gasket from a stupid line. thanx for any imput that would be great.

i'll probably post a finished product when im done. but im not sure cuz after i post it it might get stolen cuz of all the assholes these days.

 

I know most people loop the coolant line back into the return.

I think it was on FF, look at laurentz z, he did that.

Can't think of any other specific cars that have this done, but I am sure there are plenty.

There might also be a way to just block off the lines all together, but you would prob. have to pull the motor to do that.

 

i dont see why you cant plug them off.
cap the line from behind the head and find a fitting to plug off the block......no engine pulling nec.

 

I said I wasn't sure if you had to pull it or not.

I wasn't sure where on the block the coolant lines came from on SR's, but apparently you don't need to pull the motor to block it off.


Even Easier for Will.

 

if the old turbo setup is out all lines are easily reached.

lmk what you put down

 

just loop them play it safe

 

yay for will! im going to be down that way this weekend.. ill stop by!

 

yeah i know we learned that the hard way that sucked

 

thanx for the input im probably just gonna loop it

 

i kinda feel like a dick but who's this? and im not gonna start it till sunday or monday most probably
