Oil Pan Modifications for Turbo and 4 Bolt Main Small Block Ford #DarkMatterPikachu
Check out Kalvinator Engines: http://www.kalvinatorengines.com
While prepping the engine block for painting, we ran into a couple of issues. The first isn’t so much an issue as it is something we had to do to accommodate the turbo, and that was install a drain port for the oil return. The second problem that came up was with clearance of the 4 bolt main block. The original block was only 2 bolt main, my new block has 4 bolt mains. Because of that, we needed to ‘clearance’ the oil pan to get it to fit onto the block.
It’s all part of the process when you want to go fast.
Thanks again to Justin Frische for his help in this video.
