I have oil in my turbos

Why the smilie, cos it's in the bearings

Connected my oil feeds today and thought I'd spin it over to check for through flow of oil. Got pressure too.

Garage floor has a bit of oil on it as I haven't connected the drains yet - wouldn't have been able to check for oil it if I had

Drains during next week, then finish connecting everything up.

Then on with the bonnet and back on the road!

Mark,

Not yet The turbo conversion was supposed to take 6 weeks and is very nearly (mechanical/fabrication) done. Will need to get my Emerald organised sometime, then finish remaking the bonnet.

The Jag diff (that's all I'm going to use) may have to wait till winter as I want to use the car this summer. It's already been off the road for 7 months.

Still, I'm seeing light at the end of the tunnel, so may speed up a bit

If it all works as planned
