Ok, I wrapped the cross over & down pipe, & i am going to coat it with a protective copper paint to keep fluids out. I still have to wrap the headers.

My dog is luck he is a husky, it was 28 degrees in the garage last night.

These are all of the parts that need to go back in the car, minus exhaust & suspension. Looks easy enough.

The car is almost ready for the new turbo, i was tracing the turbo & engine mount oil lines to make a flange. Looks like modern art/

Does anyone have a wiring diagram to an SMT-5 ??

Nice work, Jake. Those Y-intersections are a real bitch (no reference to your dog). It good to see you have really torn into the engine. The more you do it the more you know the engine. The only way you can really stay ahead of the maintenance is to square it all away right at the start then keep a close eye on it after that. Good luck!

Speaking of getting in there, i noticed a little wear in the engine mounts, so i ordered a new pair off of ebay:

Ebay motor mounts

I didn't want buy aftermarket mount, so i asked if they had a part #.
When they arrived (5 mins ago) the # is on the bag followed by OEM.
The mount does not have a #, it does say GERMANY on it.

Is this a real turbo mount?
The price was good ($82 for 2) but i don't want to cut corners.

Default Where does this go?

Does anyone know where this sensor goes?

It was hanging behind the P/S pump.

I bought a pair of the same engine mounts, they are destined for an '84 944 - I too am wondering if they are really that good.........

i'm in no position to judge the quality of these mounts.
They look nice, and seem solid.

But they are missing the part # stamp/

Only time will tell.

LEt me know how yours do Sharky47.....

little hick-up found.

While tracking down a coolant leak i found a hairline crack on the oil coolant
housing. I also found the coolant leak.

Anyone have this part for sale, or think i could fix this one?

I'm going to pull it tonight.
