    Yeh i had a look at how you hooked it up and think it may be better to use a pull type cylinder IF it doesn't get in the way, i haven't yet found one so I'm unsure that it will 100% work for me but i will see.

    OBX take other peoples product makes a copy and sells them with no need for R&D (apparently) chances are they based their copy on the A1 turbo kit.

    yeah i can see the point your making, but everyone know that rip off parts are available, but at least they usually have pics etc of the rip offs, not just stolen images that arnt even of the product they are selling....

    either way, sorry for offtopic.

    one thing that surprised me when i was looking into this conversion, and i REALLY wanted to do it, was how physically BIG these engines are. They are much bigger than a ls# in every dimension except length.... the ls was 70mm longer. and thats near on 2 l bigger. ls worked out to be something like 10kg lighter, but the t56 was 10 kg heavier... so it all sorted it self out.

    good to see you going ahead with this man

    it bigger and hella strong though, not much done today, did get around to paying for the 4 link boxes as well as ordering the ECU, Link Extrime with MAP sensor and Temp sensor for $1700 new in box delivered to my door, rather happy with that price.
