Default Very Large Turbo .... check it out.

how much do you guys think its worth, looks cleaned on the inside and bearings are new, no shaft play side to side what so ever. looks like aircraft hardware holding it together inside, for the outside look its in great shape.

to my knowledge it is off of a 1671 catapiller desil engine....


1.00 exhaust side and a who the hell knows intake side

Might be worth a little to some big rig diesel person but, I doubt it has much value to anyone here.

That is a big bastage though.

It probably wouldnt be good for anything except what its designed for, or a cool decoration for the house if its cheap. And you have a text message by the way

I guess every website eventually becomes the type that shows pictures like these. Pictures that show how once your "turbochager" gets old and worn out enough, you are able to insert pop bottles and cellphones into their "entrances".
