FABO member PISHTA was good enough to take his time and not only send me photos of this turbo manifold/adapter, but also to include a scan of the dimensions and physical specs of the required hardware AND a detailed description of the whole shebang, so anyone who wants a turbo on their slant six can have one without breaking the bank or running afoul of the stock exhaust manifold's tendency to want to crack, if welded on. This whole turbo-adapter apparatus is a bolt-on deal; no welding on the cast manifold is required at all.
I think that's a wonderful plan, because cracks in the manifold are not usually easy to fix, and this setup isn't going to conribute to that scenario!
He sent me several explanatory pictures and some text that will also be very helpful, I think, to anyone building a boosted slant six for the first time.
I am a computer IDIOT and don't have the skills or knowledge to put all of this (pictures, text, and drawings) in one posting on this website, so it will show up here as several different pages, but it will all be there, so bear with me, please.
Here is a pic of the finished product: Go to the next post for more pix...
