[QUOTE="clemsonjeep, post: 463764, member: 6317"] Made some more progress today. Clocked the center housing to get the oil drain to the bottom. Then started working on the "collector pipe". I decided to go with 1.75" .120 DOM and threw it in my lathe to reduce the end down to slip into the inlet flange. I will weld this on the inside and grind it smooth...if necessary (depends how bad i booger it up). In any case...all this allowed me to mock the turbo into its position and get the measurements for the oil feed and drain lines which should be here Thursday. Shameless plug for Techna-Fit for any and all braided stainless lines you might ever need!

I still need to weld the bung in for that.
