[s-cars] More Turbo Help. T04E/K26 Questions. Car is waiting for a new t urbo...

[Lewis, Gary M]

Questions:
1. How can I tell if my 3 K26's are #8 hotside?
2. Should I clip the hotside 10 degrees?
3. Why not a K26/K24 hybrid, with the large K24 coldside?  I actually have
the K24 coldside parts, just needs assembly.
4. If I go with the K-26/T04E, will I need a new intake hose (to fit around
the Big-@$$ intake)?  From whence do I procure such a beast?
5. I was told that the non-ceramic bearings in the Garrett center section
were being fried from high oil pressures.  If true, why not put a restrictor
in the oil line?

Thanks,

Gary Lewis
