True. But just think of it as an alternative to the 6A13 or single turbo 6A12. E.g., while a 6A13 would be nice, I'd still have to buy the engine, whereas there's nothing wrong with the one presently in the car so I don't feel a pressing need to be rid of it.
You seen the price of Galants getting rekt at the moment? Aint worth sh*t.

Just get the 6A13. Stronger rods, larger oil pump, factory tapped oil & water lines off the block, no need to decompress, etc etc etc AND it comes with 2 turbos.
HMM. Still got the dimensions for that stove pipe? :lol:
My mechanic probably still has the jig..

Rebuilt the fuel system once again. Removed dodgy dual fuel pump setup & replaced with big single Walbro (457L/hr E85 compatible.)

Removed all rubber fuel & water piping, replaced with new rubber & braided rubber on fuel lines. Replaced most of the vac & crank case pressure lines as well. New inline 6AN fuel filter as well.

Bump. Yo Ben do you remember the depth of those thermo fans? (and how deep is your rad? Cause it looks larger than stock).

And notice any major improvements with the vented hood now?
