allright guys i need your input. just recently i installed a ct-26 turbo on my 5sfe block it was all workin good for about a week now, and just yesterday i was coasting down the exit ramp to go to work and all off a sudden my engine just shuts off my itself i was like wtf so i try starting it it took about 5 turns for it to fire, and once it did it knocked like a sob and i had like no power felt like 2-3 cylinders. so i take it easy and drive it the rest of the way to work which was 2 blocks and i park it and pop the hood to see where the chatter was comming from. it sounds like it's comming from the head. after work i started the car up again and it started up with ease.. lil rough but not as before. so it's all workin and decide to take it for a test drive around the block. it was getting worse and worse. i brought it back and popped the hood it was nothing but screeching and sounded like metal on metal so i'm thinking cams. i turn it off and let it be. it sat overnight.
it seems like it's not getting oil my friend said. i took the oil feed from the stock sender with a T. i'm using a -3 an feed and a -12 an drain. my friend is gonna help me tow it home tonite to see what tge deal is. i'm just gonna take off the valve cover to start out with to see damge. i also have a relocation kit mounted on my driver side fender well. do you think that this is too much travel for the oil pump to pump out?? thanks guys for your input. -------------------- ![]() |
