Might have a bad line and that's it.
Reminder to all turbo guys. Nothing should be touching the hit pipes.

 

Maybe it overheated the oil, cause this is how the one that installed my 80e set the lines, right under where the header is, Well turbo manifold now. I sent him a pic and told him about and he said it was fine.

 

Damn, that would not give me piece of mind.

Ive got factory 2500 cooler lines with my 80e swap

 

 

Holy could've lost a foot batman

 

Looks like it was easy to drop!

Sorry man, thats **** luck. Can you tell what happened? Ive only seen a handful of screwed up cases on here...

 

No joke, I've seen examples where **** has come through the floorboard.

Wonder what could have caused that.

 

Heading somewhere, about 30 min of cruising I just felt a huge explosion and truck started bouncing real bad. Wasn't playing with it when it broke, it was at 70mph @1900rpm. I think the converter(stock) went out or tranny somehow overheated but can't really tell how it went out unless someone that knows about trannies inspects it.

 

How many bolts were in the bellhousing?

 

It never had the bottom housing cover. I didn't remove it so Idk how many were left holding it.
