Driving my turbo ghia for the first time!

This was the best day for ages! I drove to kangasniemi - to change the oil pump cover to to my turbo ghia...a csp cover, that has a valve did the trick and now it has normal oil pressures... Wow.
We got the engine running but it was smoking like hell, which was a bit a dissapointment, but i went for a small spin for test the other stuff... The best part was that the oil pressures were ok, and the smoke was gone after a couple of minutes driving. The rancho drag race gear box worked fine, and the rest of the car was allmost civilized, sort of... ;-)
I tested the third gear and the gauge was showing around one bar of boost, ... Yeeeeha! The kawell turbo setup from the stone age works fine! I dont know how fast i was going... Heheh....
There was some issues though, like one burned fuse, and the oil cap is missing now, and the fan is history also, but we managed to get the car back at the garage, and im on my way to home...
What a day, i feel better than james brown...!

X-mas coming... And coming ;-)

This time came some smaller parts, superflow-ida manifolds, oilpump cover with pressure valve and linkage, thanks for aircooled.fi! Looks great! Now i only need some 48 carbs. Whats next in line? The bearings etc from keiteleen kone. Then i would guess that its time for some serious assembly... Yikes!
