[urq] water cooled turbo conversion

[Robert Pastore]

 I think need to clarify my last message:

Adaptes are needed for the oil cooler lines when converting to single
filter, since fittings at the housing are a different size.

RE: For the K24 conversion,  IIRC, you need the oil feed line from a 1985
5ktc.  I think the line may be specific to the 1985 model year.

Hmm - I think you still need to change out the lines but I could be wrong.
IIRC the water jacketed turbos all have smaller oil line flanges to make
room for the water lines.  

Ed - you just did this --? anybody else have info on this?

  I was planning on using a K26 again. I had custom oil lines made a number
of years ago and I'm hoping they'll work with an coolant jacketed K26 as
well.
