Mount it to the exhaust manifold connect the coolant line, oil feed line & oil return. If all your stuff is out of the way maybe half hour and its back on. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91156-turbo-might-be-stuffed/page/5/#findComment-1563732 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have two mechanics helping me (by standing there holding a beer and watching) so if it is possible to leave the exhaust manifold on, I'm sure they will be able to do it.
