Message: [QUOTE="neverkickn, post: 66281, member: 718"] Thanks everyone for the input. I talked to the builder today and he said that it was an oiling issue. There was scaring and some burned spots. I mentioned that I have had the motor out twice with that turbo so thats twice that I have had to prime the lpo system. It was his opinion that the dry starts caused or at least greatly contributed to the problem. I tend to believe him but I still want to rule out an oil flow issue. Hey, HRT it wont lift the oil fill cap at idle with the crankcase vented to atmosphere and not plugged or restricted. I have never had a magnahelic on it. When you refer to a pressure differential between the pedistal and the crankcase are you talking about fluid pressure? Where would I need to check the pressure of the crankcase to determine if there is a disparity? By the way Charles I am having it rebuilt with a 65mm wheel I believe. Gonna have to machine the shroud a bit but I agree with you that I will get some better flow. [/QUOTE]
