I don’t know if there is anything quite so scary as drilling a 1 inch hole in your oil pan. Next step weld in a oil return bung.

Just ordered a new oil pump because the pan is off and why not while I'm there.
 
Yes please!
 
Updates by chance? The whole 3FE world is counting on you.... no pressure.

Not much of an update. Just life got in the way to slow progress to a crawl. I think I have cleared enough space in the engine bay to fit the turbo and not melt anything or boil my break fluid.

I did shorten the exhaust so that it exits just behind the drivers side b pillar.

With the help of a borrowed head and exhaust manifolds I can fab the turbo mid pipe outside the truck. The gauge cluster is installed. And there is no CEL after the EGR delete.
 
Very cool, any updates??
 
Very interested! Tuned in for sure!
 
Bump... updates?
 
I’m very, very close on a LS swap, so the idea of a turbo 3FE is waning.

Lots of people doing turbos on diesels... and the later gas engines superchargers (1FZ, 2UZ)
 
i'll be starting mine as soon as I get my 80 shipped back to me. Got everything I need, I think. Including a rebuilt 3fe.
