Cast-iron turbo? All I've ever seen were aluminum or chromed (maybe cast-iron underneath?)

Half of it is, James.

Half of the one behind it is as well. Wink

James, I love ya man, but I think we need to have Dewey change your username as you are clearly undeserving!

Well, it wouldn't be fair to stop with him because I'm not "quick" either. No no no...

Hell, I never even had a turbo in any of my cars...started out 10 years ago when I had a pipe dream of installing one in the 98 Camaro I had and we see where that went...lol!

As long as we're making confessions.... I drive a Ford.

I drive a Ford and a not-Ford. And I collect turbochargers and aircon delete boxes. Wink

I think half the people I meet are below average.

But are half your turbos cast iron? Cool

Ha! Is this the Ford Truck Enthusiast forum? Those guys are idiots.

Hell, last night I posted on TGO again. That's how much of a masochist I am. I should log in real quick and see if I've been put on probation yet! Laughing

BTW, in their defense, the F-150 is a car. The word "truck" doesn't start til around the heavy 3/4 ton mark. Hell, according to your friendly Uncle the PT Cruiser is a f***ing half-ton truck. Squint

I have to admit that was pretty funny....

The first is that on your build thread there is no build. You bought a car and washed it, and then bought and engine. That's not a build, that's what you get done on Saturday before lunch.

I joined FTE when I first bought the Mercury many moons ago because the guys that hang out on the FE forum there are fairly knowledgeable. When I bought my ill-fated F-150 I jumped over to the box-nose forum and found a whole world of idiots.

There was a thread on whether or not it was a good idea to release the emergency brake quickly that went on for several pages! I had a guy vehemently argue with me after I told him I thought it was a bad idea to route all his aftermarket accessory wiring directly to the battery posts instead of using a junction block.

I use underscores because in my youth I hand-wrote HTML and I got tired of typing out the codes for space all the time.

That's okay, B. I got the Cascade Crew drunks and my turbochargers to keep me company. Laughing

I've got a friend in my profile but I don't even know who the guy is. Seriously.

Stalker.

Or maybe he wanted to see if you'd ever get the BBC running and then he died of old age. Razz
