Seeing as they fit the hellion sleeper kit will they be for low mount turbos? I'm looking to upgrade from my BW modified turbo headers to some better ones. If they fit I'll be grabbing them as soon as they are available. What wastegate size will they use? Care to share any pics??
I tried to order a set of them last week as well to update my hot side. They said to call back in 3-4 weeks and they should have a better idea on when they will be in.
Oversized is always the best way to go. It has much more capacity to deal with heat soak. The dual fans are actually impeding airflow while moving over 20-30mph anyways. Go with the simpler oversized heat exchanger.
I’m not sure of the thread size but absolutely do not plug it. When running it is building up pressure internally and needs to be vented. You could run it to a catch can to capture these vapors.
I needed to add a catch can to my TR6060 when running high hp as it also purged fluid out of it...
Only the 11-12 5.0's and GT350's were factory equipped with the 12mm bolts. If you wanted to upgrade to the 12mm I would highly recommend to take the block to a machine shop so that they are drilled and tapped true. Otherwise the 11mm studs are plenty strong for nearly all applications.
Yup sure was. The only sign of lifting that I had was some very minor coolant seepage at the back of both heads. I didn’t have a head gasket leaking at the cylinders at all.
