The 418 is going back in

Damn oil pickup tube bolt came out of the housing of the oil pump causing the pickup tube to seperate form the pump, which in turn caused all my oil pressure issues. So maybe building the motor drunk wasnt such a bad thing after all

418+gt-67 turbo=instant boost

So umm, anybody wanna buy a 6L short block

Whens the 6L going in? You better put a 150 shot on the 6L that would be alot of fun

do you think that will solve your oil consumtion problems? And you are slapping on a turbo with a 11:1 compression ratio?

He's putting 317's on it. Should drop him to the 9.5 range.
