Slant 6 Turbo 68Dart Project

Well, replaced the front right tie bar end links because the wheel was banging on directional changes. Now that's gone, and everything's back to normal. I set the measurements with calipers and set the threads the same as the old ones so it should last till an allignment not to far off.

The thing I'm looking into now is a mystery oil spitting from somewhere. It has to be spitting because it is up on the firewall above where the ignition ballast is. My initial thought was one of the seals on the turbo, since i saw a tiny drop near there. These are all tiny drops. It gets maybe about 2 drops visible on the firewall every other day, less than 1/4 inch, and the car looses no oil.

My thought is oil residue on the K frame that I've missed getting blown off by the radiator fan and onto the firewall, but I'm really keeping an eye on this turbo and its seals just to be safe.

In other news though, the car just runs real great. I've hit about 1k miles with the (functioning) turbo setup. The car drives great on the freeway and in town, and I'm slowly cleaning up the undercarriage, going to get an oil pressure sender on the car (not just the low oil sender) and work with the timing more. I also intend to find some longer aluminum tubing and have someone weld together a single length to go between the carb hat and the intercooler outlet. I think the multiple silicone links are causing issues with sealing pressure. 8psi is still what I'm hitting even turning the boost controller a few clicks. It might be that it needs more turning, but I don't want to overdo it.
