One word about dealing with the turbo plumbing. It is possible to pull the exhaust manifold away from the block with the oil drainback pipe still attached to the turbo--but it is not possible (at least I could never do it) to get the pipe back into the hole in the block with the sealing "O" ring straight and intact. I insert the removed pipe into the block and then work on the two flange bolts at the turbo. I would also caution against using any sealer at any of the turbo oil connections---especially silicone as it could squeeze out and block an orifice. -- Dave
