hey guys , was at turbotrana's earlier today trying to sus out a few things , I came to realise that the noise ive been assuming was an exhaust leak but could never find is definitely the dump pipe gasket. Ive been looking everywhere to find a thread of "how to" replace the gasket the easiest way possible. All I have been able to find that's remotely close is threads on "how to remove turbo for flapper upgrade." If I can avoid pulling off the whole turbo and all the oil return lines and coolant lines I would much prefer that , I dont have a hoist but I do have a quality jack. If anyone can put me in the right directions it would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Hey guy, I've been putting this off for a while now but it's time to fix my to fix all my leaks. My engine had a mishap when the PCV one way valve started to fail and pressurize the crank case. Since fixing the PCV, I've have acumulated a few annoying leaks and my head gasket has started to leak coolant The list: *head gasket *rocker cover *timing cover *sump *rear main *engine mounts *valve springs

Hey guys, My engine has started leaking coolant externally out of the head gasket on the exhaust side. I'm thinking it's a good idea to fix this before it get too much worse. My question is: After removing the gearbox, fans and radiator etc, can the engine be lifted straight out the top or are there clearance issues requiring a balance bar etc? Thanks

hey guys... I have a BA xr6t currently running stock turbo on a built engine at 20psi. I need to replace the head gasket sooner rather than later as im currently running a copper 1 and it seems that unless you work for NASA theyre pretty hard to get spot on?? suggestions on a good gasket to use? cheers JET40T
