Saturday I ordered a new powermaster, vac block, battery hold down, new turbo oil feed line, new 160 degree thermostat. Today I went and bought some gas......the gas prices have finally effected race gas. Generally it's $7 a gallon, but today I bought two 5 gallon drums of VP 110 and it was $94.  :bigeyes; WTF.

OMG. I haven't bought any high octane juice in a while. That's a shock.
My 1958 Mamiya can beat up whatever camera you just wasted your money on.

The 'T' that is for the boost guages? Yes. Now my car isn't boosting for shit and it's shifting something freaky. All we did was put the fucking tranny dipstick in, so I can't imagine WTF could be wrong. My first instinct is that when we put the turbo brace back on, while tightening it pulled the pass. side header off a little. That would explain no boost....and boost/rpms could explain it shifting funky. I need to explore all of this shit tonight. Before we put the dipstick tube on, it was running just fine, so it *HAS* to be somehow related to something we touched the other day. Dammit, and I'm s'posed to hit the dyno in a week and a half. I'm leaking hella oil again, too.....I hate this fucking car.


BTW, just out of curiosity what should oil pressure be at idle after the engine has warmed up?

About 20 psi, some will be a little lower.
