anybody else want to join in? i'm being outnumbered by haters! http://bringatrailer.com/2015/10/15/turbo-seatbelts-1987-mitsubishi-starion-esi-r/#comments worst is the 944 guy

I'll be there

thx guys & sorry for the late reply! it's running dual mikunis with the thin intake that only has 1 vacuum port

ok then a better question would be "do i need to use a torque wrench in this situation?" and the answer seems to be "no"

looked in my repair manual but couldn't find. guessing 25ftlbs for manifold & 35ftlbs for dp flange?

well i don't remember if it was leaking because i limped it home and parked it a few years ago i do know there wasn't a gasket on there when i pulled it apart (i know that could mean squat) i'm about ready for 1st startup and want to be proactive..

there was no gasket between the mani & dp. i see a slight gap tho. should there be one? http://i39.tinypic.com/scw6qa.jpg something like this? http://i41.tinypic.com/2im5jld.jpg'' or this? http://i44.tinypic.com/2lddfo9.jpg

pcv to brake booster T ... got it rear port w/light spring check valve ... then what?

So there's 2 vents on the valve cover. Where would you advise that I route these on an engine that's running an aftermarket carb & intake and no conventional air cleaner btw the intake only has a provision for the brake booster and the heater

^ this deal fell thru anybody else got one fs? (as in original post, plz pm thx)

in good cond. no holes or bad corrosion be willing to ship pm thx http://i46.tinypic.com/js0x8h.jpg

lmk thx

thx all

hi all, having already sealed the oil pan up on g54b and installed the oil pickup tube with paper gasket i've discovered the starquest parts locator shows a separate o-ring in addition to the paper gasket should remove the sealed oil pan to install this o-ring? http://www.starquestgarage.com/partsloc/conquest/1988/88_conquest_partsloc_nav.html 9a 3600

either the "L" shape starquest or any other g54b style that isn't completely rusty. tia!

n/ait's a narrowblock with the small 5spd i've heard the narrowblock 5spds are strong for their size but haven't actually heard they're suitable for turbo engines

nice! got some readin' to do

^ many thanks indy! what i'm doing is i've got a shortblock 2.6 crate engine that i'm attempting to make complete by cannibalizing my 2.0 but finding that not all the 2.0 bits transfer over

^ very helpful thx! looks like your version has alternate oil pickup boltup location (funny the oil pans look identical) here's a pic of my narrowblock 54. any ideas what these three 6mm holes are used for? http://i56.tinypic.com/xcit4w.jpg

^ belated thx shelby

why you might ask? well i'm swapping my g52b pan & oil pickup onto my g54b, and find that the oil pickup tube bolt pattern is different between the two i'd like to see a pic to see if i can use a g54b pickup tube or if i need to splice the two tubes thx!

good guy to deal with

@skullz - thx for that link! brilliant stuff

@Skullzaflare - on the 4g64 probably? will that fit the g54b tho?

thx guys
