They scrapped it and I got it for free. I figure I can tear into it an figure out what caused the leak and then fix it. I'm guessing theres a seal somewhere that wasn't placed correctly during the assmebly process. Anyhow it seems a bit large for my 2.5L CSVT engine to be pushing it, so it may end up on my Camaro's 358. Assuming I can fix it. Anyhow take a look and toss out your opinions. It's a Caterpillar Perkins turbo, P/N 2674A348, it came from a 6 cylinder diesel. For the moment thats all I know about it. -Mike 98 Contour SVT Toreador Red #49 of 6535 Built on 3/25/97 WR Headers, Borla Cat-Back, Torsen T2 LSD, K&N Short Ram, S-AFC and Focus Shift Tower 85 Camaro 1969 358ci, 97 TA interior, 91 Z28 GrdEfx and Aero Wing 255rwhp

I shrunk it down the same as the other ones in imageshack? Anyhow, Mod can you delete this? I'm just going to repost it in forced induction and fix the picture or at least try. Thanks. -Mike 98 Contour SVT Toreador Red #49 of 6535 Built on 3/25/97 WR Headers, Borla Cat-Back, Torsen T2 LSD, K&N Short Ram, S-AFC and Focus Shift Tower 85 Camaro 1969 358ci, 97 TA interior, 91 Z28 GrdEfx and Aero Wing 255rwhp
