Looking for feedback
Whats up my peeps I haven't posted in a while but I have been looking at the board regularly. Dave sad to see you let the car go but you have another baby that deserves your attention more. LOL
Anyway I am looking for a lil feedback on my idea for a turbo setup I have in mind. Now when I did my 3.4 swap I used the entire 3.4 setup from the oil pan to the alternator. My plan is this:
remove all a/c parts, mount the turbo where the compressor use to be. Now on the oil pan for the 3.4 there are 2 plugs where sensors use to go ( one on the left the other on the right). Those are my spots I can use for my send and recieve oil lines. Now my original plan is to not use an intercooler at first but I can always add it later if I would like. Use the current dual snorkel set for my air intake and fab up a line from the turbo to the intake. With the location of the turbo unit the exahust line will not be that hard or very long to run. I can weld it right into the y pipe on the passengers side.
So what do you guys think? It seems to be very simple and straight forward for those that have done the 3.4 swap or know the setup of the 3.4. Now you would understand my plan if I had pictures so I will try to get some tomorrow and point out the locations of everything. Simple but sweet and it shouldn't take much to get it done. I know there are questions of feeding the oil to and from the unit but I can use 2 small pumps to compliment that.
Ok! Thats all I can think of for now so thanks in advanced and looking forward to reading the feedback.
