Re: Make slowboy not so slow

Got the turbo and related parts all coated and picked them up. Also got the turbo rebuilt because it was apparently leaking/burning a decent amount of oil.

Tonight I got the xfer case and oil pan off, and it turns out my motor has a crank scraper. Should I keep this in there or get rid of it? I called the motor builder and he verified he installed one several years back.

E-PSI has been super dumb about shipping me new rings, so I'm calling Magnus first thing tomorrow and ordering directly from them since they had Ross make them originally. They couldn't tell me what rings were necessary until I had the exact piston numbers scratched onto the bottom, which is why I delved into it tonight.

Oil pan was super clean, and from what I've seen so far from the bottom of the motor the cylinder walls look really good still. I should have the head off tomorrow, hopefully I'll get some pics posted up.
