According to the Fiero guys, this turbocharger is a perfect match for the 4.9 liter...Besides, I don't think I can fit anything larger in there.
2.) Oil feed is coming from the pressure switch area via a T-fitting. The pressure will go into the turbo and drain just above the oil line in the oil pan...Some drilling will be needed 
3.) Cams? Maybe for "stage 2."
4.) I've read Corkey Bell's "supercharged" and the book seems to be a wealth of knowledge. Perhaps I should pucker up and drop the $35.00 for turbocharger edition, huh? |
saw that book at sebring ....i almost bought it but i was kinda drunk at the time (honestly) i just remeber looking at it and asking the dude "hey you think i can use this on a old ass caddy?" (he laughed at me when i told him what i had)..i left the rest of my cash in my car on the other side of the track ...only had 20 bucks on me so i could get one more beer and a blooming onoin on the way back to turn 5 ...so i woulda had to have gone back and gotten the cash ..like i was gonna be able to do that ...damit ....but i did get my blooming onoin
sorry , i just remeber that corkey bell stuff there was like 3 books there , i saw the supercharger , a turbo one and something else ...they were nice books ....best part is those books were beside some on rebuilding the Jag stright six ....i put 2 and 2 togther ..twin turbo jag six ...man thatd be cool
