i am trying to find some pieces needed for my turbo kit.. i am not sure if my "google-foo" is not working right or mabey i am looking in the wrong places but i am not having any luck.. i have about 20 different ih8mud threads saved talking about putting together their turbo kit but no real good info on where they actually bought the stuff. i see references to a jgs turbo website and some ebay stuff but thats it.. and mabey it would be just easier if diesel42 (keith) can just sell me the parts that i am looking for but i would like to have my own source so i am not depending on or having to go through someone else to get me parts..
i am doing the gt2052 turbo setup on my 3b (same turbo as diesel42's kit) and have sourced everything myself so far.. i am building my own manifold as well because i think the 13bt manifold is a bit limiting on what you can actually do with a custom turbo setup and my engine bay is crowded as it is..
All that is left to source is the M10x1.0 metric fitting for the oil feed and the oil drain flange.. both have been a bit annoying to find.. i havent been able to check any turbo rebuilders here in town yet or even perhaps with the cummins or detroit dealer but the hydraulic shops are being a bit difficult to deal with regarding the issue..
i would like to find a M10x1.0 to -4an fitting for the oil feed and the ebay stuff i see all have 1.5mm restrictors in them.. i have ready nothing about people using a restrictor fitting for the oil feed to their garrett turbo so i assume that you shouldnt use one.. most of what i read says you only need a restrictor fitting if you are running over 60 psi under load.. (to prevent oil pushing past the turbo into the exhaust..)
also, i wonder if it is possible to find a banjo fitting that could go to -4.. i see a lot of volvo heavy equipment and some other foriegn stuff using a M10x1.0 thread fitting..
for the oil drain, i know you want to go as big as possible and i have also read that you dont want to run the garrett drain clocked more than 15 degrees but where is a good place to find this flange?? i dont think it matters if it has push on barbed ends or an actual jic fitting.. once again, some to be found on ebay but i would like to find a reputable dealer for this stuff.. whats the minimum you can go on this?? i am seeing a lot of -8 to -10 stuff..
