pulled the turbo back off to replace my lines, ran into a problem because i eliminated a piece of line for the coolant line that runs behind the block and between the firewall... now because i took that piece out i cant get to it... might have to pull the motor slightly back out to get it. ugh haha. also am in the middle of painting my IC pipes while i have the time waiting on other stuff.

yea... i guess. mines done, just cleaning it up. pulling it back out is like an hour setback lol, not a big deal, everything that took time, like making the IC pipes, and getting the parts i needed was the time consuming part. i still think it will be on the road before the end of the month

Cylinder one held 90 psi for 30 minutes with out dropping so thats good new. Seems engine timing is off. I thought the smoke coming out of the cylinder when the plug was pulled was oil-blow-by being burned off. Guess not. That also accounts for the back three cylinders being low but even. So I need a new rocker shim and guide and some RTV sealant and a few hours this weekend and hopefully it will run.
