Two plates to fab from 1/4" steel, and some knuckle busting to make a horribly inefficient NA 617

617.952-220k-Getting built up
larsalan I guess I need to look at this stupid ass drip shit. What you have to like mess with those elements on the pump? What a fucking hassle. then use some wire to hold the throttle open or some shit?

12-05-2013, 09:45 PM #2Make a plate to fill in the exhaust side of your blown turbo, and hook your air intake to the air filter directly with some hose. A flat blockoff plate on the oil feed, and a cap of some sort on the oil drain.

'98 E300 Turbo "Juliette" - Brabus wheels and almost all the options a w210 could have
2007 Chevy 2500HD CCSB Duramax with about 400-500 rwhp depending on the tune I use
1983 300D Silver Exterior/Black inside - Sold and will be missed, may we never meet in a PnP.
I forget if a 603 turbo is compatible? I have a spare one if it will work for you. If not I think I know where I can find you a 617 turbo.

The Garrett turbo still sits on the engine, in the car, of the blue 300D I hit the deer with in September 2012. The car is parked in my mom's driveway in Renton, I had the nose fixed but the replacement engine still sits in the donor car in my driveway in Yelm. The weather is clear and freezing. What's it worth to ya, for me to drive up to Renton, freeze my fingers pulling it, and drop it off?
Gone but not forgotten: two W123 sedans and two W124 wagons.
W124 1987 300TD wagon, for sale, $1000 (some assembly required).

12-06-2013, 03:31 PM #5I think there's a partially disassembled t3 in the trunk of my w116, I can check tomorrow. If there's enough there to make a good turbo you can have it for shipping cost
