Well I believe while prepping the engine for removal I found the cause of my boost problems.


It was very small when I started removing things, In the process of pulling the TMIC and getting the pic I made the tear much much worse. The $4 plumbing coupler served me well, but I suppose I should get the proper part.

I haven't decided whether to pull the tranny with the engine or just the engine. Pulling the engine only will make removal much easier as I will not have to drain the transmission, lower the exhaust, remove heat shielding to get to transmission mount and convertible transmission brace. Come to think of it, I won't have to take the clutch hose off either.

Ted something I forgot to mention in our PM. On the initial rebuild I had replaced the clutch with an ACT street clutch. Replaced the throwout and pilot bearings at that time.
