Shoot, if I cut one of them them it would be a breeze to get everything out tomorrow.

Why aren't you able to use them? They look to be in fine shape.

I don't even know where the turbos oil supply line goes to, but I'll be t-ing off the oil pressure sender.

I'll snap pictures before I cut anything. There's a line at the bottom of the turbo that goes to the lower/mid block. There are also 2 other lines that feed into the top of the turbo.

I would love to cut them to make removal easy; but I think you should look at pictures and figure out what you need.

So I'll add the hose for the IAC and the Y adapter for the flame trap to the list.

You going new braided for the oil lines and associated adaptors ($100 according to the thread) and looks to be recommended or you want the stock lines from this one? Cutting these will really expedite shipment, but no problem if you want these intact.

Where does the stock oil feed line even go to on the engine? Cut them if you have to.

There's a tropical storm moving on us in Tampa Bay; it's been raining all day and will continue through tomorrow. Bay News 9 | Tampa News, Weather, Traffic, Entertainment, Politics

The 1st picture shows the hard line that routes forom the bottom of the turbo to the block.

The 2nd picture is of a braided steel replacement line, vs the oe hard line, and where it goes from the 1st picture at the block to the bottom of the turbo.

The 3rd picture shows all 3 lines. There are 2 hard lines on the top of the turbo. 1 goes to the block and the other had hose connected to it and is short and doesn't need to be removed even if I cut the other 2 lines. Replacing these with braided steel seems to be recommended but is a small investment.

Just let me know what you decide.

Oh, and on the first picture it's the largest diameter metal line that is leaking some oil.

Yeah, I'll just replace with braided steel. Cut the lines.

Took a few teaser pics today; as shown below.

DAVE - Haven't forgotten about you! Found 4 alloy taurus rims with tires for $100 cash. A little more than I was looking to spend on steelies but it's the best choice now. Going to make the deal with the guy later on in the week.
What part of the world are you in? I am restoring a 91 and I need some trim.

Hi arp,

I've got tan trim galore. Feel free to post what you're interested in and I'll take photos.

Hey ARP,

Do you use some-odd distribution of Linux?

Hi, I think the easiest way to do the interior is load everything in a box and I'll pay for it all and the shipping.

I nčed all the nuts and bolts, there are also lots of little clips and plastic covers. I could also use the radio box.

Oh Cwazywazy..... Got it all FINALLY! Except for the harness/ECU/ICU. EVERYTHING else is good to go. And the line from the bottom of the turbo to the block and one of the 2 top lines are completely intact! The one that I bent (not cut) didn't pinch and could easily be bent back to fit.

Do you need the harness that goes to the ECU through the firewall or is all of the ignition harness in the engine bay?

I also took the oil filter relocation kit off along with trans cooler and oil cooler.


Hi Allan,

So, do you mean that you want the ENTIRE interior? Some things, like the front seats are sort of torn up but MANY MANY inteior parts are in good shape. If you have a list I'll snap corresponding pictures or just lay everything out if you want it all.

I completely forgot about the oil cooler. Will that one work in my car? I think my ECU wiring/connecor is the same, but the ICU is the main difference.
