Fwd: [urq] water cooled turbo conversion

[Ed Kellock]

I converted to the single oil filter assembly and had to have some
custom fittings made for the oil cooler lines.  The new fittings are
the ones that screw into the oil filter housing.  There's a hydraulic
hose shop here that cut and brazed fittings for me.

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.
