Is the turbo getting turned around?
Good to see it coming along
nar, no biggie, inlet and exhaust are fine, no point touching stuff that doesnt need touching, otherwise its another thing that could fail. I like to keep stuff as original as possible.
But on another note, got the engine seriously far back, cant really see very well in the pic, but the top mount cooler sits mostly under where the wiper mechanisms are.

nice work beally, good to see it coming along
props on mounting the engine further back too, how far back from say stock position so to speak is it???
i got mine 40 mm further back as in i had w58 behind 4a and the 6 speed is eact same length as the w series box and i chopped 40mm off the tailshaft, yours looks to be a bit urther back than mine, great work anyway love following basically a ground up build
mine shall be getting the same treatment sometime soon, got some big ass plans
your beast is tops
cheers, id say about, 50mm maybe 60. When it was in stock position, i wouldnt have had to touch the firewall, bt now its in about 60 or 70mm inside the firewall. It makes it easier take the engine in and out and work on it and crap too.
I also simplified all the shit on the back of the engine. It had like a collector for the rocker breather that collected oil and dribbled it back into the block. It had like 40 different hoses for cold start which i have pissed off, all the heater crap, just going to loop what I can and block off the rest.
