Triptych Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 Hey guys, I have been trying to sort out my parts for my build and as I have collected a lot of stuff over the years I am having some trouble identifying a couple of things. Firstly is this turbo manifold. It was with my L28 when I purchased it (not on the engine) and I did a rough mock up to see if it would fit today but seems to be a few mm short on the end lugs (I am pretty sure middle ones line up just either end) and I did notice a lot of the US manifolds are actually sliced right through the last holes on either side giving side to side movement where as this is just a hole for the stud. When I purchased my engine it was a bunch of parts already torn down and such and a lot of spares as well. Secondly is this cam. Now I have seen in USA that turbo cams in the p90 are similar with holes drilled throughout the cam with no spray bar but there is a spray bar attached to this one as well. It was also located in a box with all my engine parts. Basically also need to know if its safe to run without the spray bar. Basically I will be updating my sale post with a few more items for todays clean up but need to know if I can make this turbo manifold and cam work for my L28 turbo build (P90/F54). Thank you for any help you can provide. Quote
pauly_adams Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 the turbo manifold is a L20ET small port manifold, the cam is a stock L28E A grind camshaft. Quote
dat2kman Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 I have a spare P90 Turbo cam, if you are after one! Check the height/widths of the port entries into that manifold, i have a stock cast iron L28E mani that came off a P90, i can measure for you. The L20ET turbo heads do have slightly smaller exhaust ports, compared to a P90 exhaust ports. If it is, you could always match the ports to a int/exh gasket ( yes, Got a decent die grinder here, can do that foryou,,,) Quote
Triptych Posted June 9, 2016 Author Posted June 9, 2016 Cheers for that Jason. I have sent you a PM. Is it right for me to be having the issues with the turbo manifold not seeming to fit with the exhaust studs (the hole in the manifold seem a few mm short so would need enlongating)? Quote
Triptych Posted June 9, 2016 Author Posted June 9, 2016 Also forgot to say thanks as well Pauly for the information. Hopefully with some help from Jason I can get this manifold to work and will have the stock L28 cam for sale. Quote
