A 1jz bellhousings was used. And sorry for no replies. I had this set to let me know when anyone posted on it but today is the first time i got an email. Now I would like to tell you all that at the point of the new turbo is when I took ownership of the truck. Everything b4 that was done by a friend.

The truck has been down due to an idle issue but think we have it fixed and have also upgraded the fuel system with new high flow fuel rail, 900cc injectors, all new 6an fuel lines, 2 walbro 255lph fuel pumps, and lastly a 16 gal fuel cell. Will post all the pics up tomorrow.

the 900cc injectors are a little big, wont use all the potential = lower injector cycle rate.
