Turbo is a Precision GT30/76r dual ball bearing turbo .63 a/r hot, .60 a/r cold
i did my lines 2 years ago and i don't remember the thread sizes/pitch cause i got em custom made by a friend's machine shop to weld jic banjo fittings to AN fittings.
i'm doing the same turbo set up on a friend's swap and was wondering if anyone knew of a good place with the lines already made, and or what the thread/pitches are for the ends of the fittings.
I wanna say i need an oil restrictor fitting of .040 to go to the top of the turbo oil feed (double check me on the correct restrictor bore), on the back of that should be a -3 or -4 AN male. i have extra -3 AN hose and female fittings already.
going into the block for the turbo feed....this one i'm not sure about. i wanna say the banjo bolt threads are 12x1.5 , i know the coolant line for the block is 12x1.5 and i already have the earl's fitting for that. i believe it's the same 12x1.5 on either end of the turbo for the coolant passages too. but , i'm unsure of the threads at the block for the oil feed. i could find out this weekend when i go to where the car's at but if i could already have the fittings ordered that'd really help me to head over there and do the job rather than get the measurements this weekend. order the stuff, then next weekend have all the parts.
what are the threads exactly on the top of the turbo as well. i know most journal turbos are 1/8 npt but this one's not the same and it's not a journal turbo either. i called precision and he didn't know the exact specs other than it's not 1/8npt.
thx for the info, i owe ya one,
