gutester2.3

Alright, so I've blown a few head gaskets in my nearly stock84 svo! I was hoping someone had a recommendation for bolts and torque specs that would work best! The motor is completely rebuilt with milled head.Mods are as follows=Ported e6 head, roller followers, sn-95 t-body, adjustable fuel pressure regulator,manual boost controler(currentley 18lbs), windage tray, t-coupe cam, 3in dump exhaust, shaved rods, and its bored .30 over! So if you have any recommendations please let me know for the head bolts and torque specs. Also I've heard of people putting on some turbo off of a cummins motor and was wondering what turbo that might be, or what would you recommend as far as a nice upgrade from the stock turbo! Well thanks foryour time reading my thread!!

Ok, get ARP head bolts. Best Ive ever used. Torque them down to 75 tf. lbs, then go again at 90 ft. lbs.

After the first 200-300 miles re-torquw them to 90ft. lbs.

Felpro 1035 head gasket is the better one for the 2.3 turbo.

The turbo is a holset from a cummins diesel. HY 30-35 for the auto, HX 35 for the manual.

From stock I would get a hybrid unless you want pwer, than get a holset and set boose high
