not a prob. i mean at first i was lost but read to it and saw top of turbo oil line goes into the back of the block then the rest goes from turbo to oil pan and the breather line and I was like ahh not so hard after reading it 2 or so times lol just gotta get my turbo mani back today and the lil cover tapped and ill be set to bolt up mani to car and turbo and charge pipes . then the alt set up and intake mani. just having a lil problem with the alt i tried to put it back on sunday just to see how things were gonna go and it was not bolting down all the way. it was hitting a lil bracket looking type piece right where the alt goes so i need to go back and see whats up and take a pic of it
well ma cool pops went ahead and picked up the stuff from the shop
(yes my father is into cars and the build it self) so that helps alot since im stuck at work everyday lol

Cool, I'm gonna go ***** to the wall, get all the goodies first, and do Paul's old turbo setup justice I'll be in Vegas soon. I told the wifey I'd take her to Vegas if she let me buy the turbo
