I am sure wondering how that rebuild went. Did he add the turbo again ?
I am considering one myself . .. Considering for altitude compensation only.

After all of this discussion, how many of you want to run out and buy a Turbo Kit???
I was considering it but am definitely having second thoughts.

I also remembered something... In 1963 when the Corvair Spyder was introduced with a Turbo, my brother-in-law bought one. His father had a heart attack and sister and hubby were living in Wash. DC at the time. 5 hour drive back then.

The Spyder made it 1/2 way before burning a hole through a piston.
I just remembered that, was pretty young back then...

That thing ran like Stink but just didn't stay together....
yeah and you probaby used low grade gas to say a buck. my friend had one and it still ran like stink 150k later in tx with our heat.
