Well done sir
Yeah, Rob those one piece Fel-pro gaskets are sweet. I'll have to look up the part number and report back.
Every 2.2/2.5 we own has one.
In fact we even have a sweek one piece, metal...

T3/t04e super 50 trim / .63 Chrysler turbine with stage 2 wheel. A bit small imo for our goals but it's being donated from the 90 caravan so we'll see how far it takes us.
With the header we're...
Oh that's tight. Wouldn't have thought fitment would be an issue on a van of all vehicles. Looks like Tight 90° coupler should clear. We'll see when we get it on. Thanks for the heads up!
This build is done for. See Part II for where the fun is just beginning. :evil:

I think the time has come to switch over to a new thread... the van is going under a hard new direction of what was originally intended.

Almost done.

Getting ready.

Build should start late February.
Excited to see you run so...
Do any of the intake or exhaust manifold fasteners require sealant then? I never knew this before but have occasionally seen oil on top of the #1 exhaust runner.
Sucks about the Trans issue. Sorry to read that.
What was your exact setup like when you ran the 11.8 at 116?
Quick run down of dad's TBI minivan.
Bought, I believe, two years ago from Rich (guy who used to own our old 90 big turbo Caravan and also who bought Terry Ryan's 11.76 van) at ~230,000 miles on...
What's the news with this bad boy? What happened the rest of the season?
JT, where can we see the most up to date list? Link to www.turbo-mopartimes.com loops me around to the TM homepage.
Finally got around to cleaning her back up.

There, that's more like our style. ...
More parts are on their way for the build. Think I'll make a part II thread for this since it's starting all over again...
I'm excited!
Starter wiring was unshielded. Old dry wiring is like fire wood under the turbo.
Yes and yes! Same silver van in this thread... Also the black van is Dad's newest addition as of ~two years ago (I think?). 1990 TBI 5-speed.
Two and a half years later, here's what we've been up to!
Caught it on fire...

I'll just leave this here. Good things to come soon. ;)...
Bummer. We'll see if they last!
Oh, right, arent the early T1 rods real thin in the center? I thought it was reaaaal early T1's, like 86 older? Are the main bolts reusable? Do the torque specs change if I resuse both factory rod...
Hopefully pulling the engine out soon and tearing it back down to inspect the damage. Need to tear apart the spare short block. Ran the casting number and found it to be an 86-88 2.2 turbo short...
