Honestly Bud, no I haven't. Since it's been outside, I have kind of not thought much about it. I'll think on it this weekend and get a hold of you.

Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion

We can swap out one at a time, I did that on my truck and it holds 50+psi and we are unsure of the miles on my engine.

It's hugger orange, I have no idea how soon I'll drive it. It's kind of snowed in at the moment. I'll post a vid when it's time.

The turbos are a HT60 (76mm) over a Super HX40 (60mm). I do have some pics I'll have to post back up.

Yes I do. They are either H1C's on early engines or HX35w's on later until CR's. I have a good used one and some that have some play but are still usable.

If you want to sell them, let me know. I don't have any of either style right now. I like to have a set of each usually. Oops.
