well, barring a miracle from Precision Turbo on Tuesday the car ain't gonna make Power Tour this year. I just finished pulling the turbo, no obvious signs of oil leakage. But it's positively coming from that turbo somehow, as the plugs are spotless, there is no other way to get oil into that pipe.

I've had e-mails suggesting to just not idle for any period of time, but on Power Tour you might have 1-2 hours of idling/slow moving to get into a particular venue. So your cooling system better be up to task, and the car better not smoke...........

It's been real and it's been fun updating the thread, but it hasn't been real fun................ Thanks for all the comments, and I'll let you know Tuesday what's happening.
