Didn't think about that... I'm sure I have quite a bit of aluminum laying around.



BDC responded to post of mine on the mailing list. He said he had no problems doing this on his last engine making more than 350 RWHP. I agree that the PREFERRRED way is to just get another housing. I'll persue selling some scrap and see where I get. It's just that every dollar I spend on the engine is taking away from a new turbo.



Thanks, Scott
Dude, I was totally bullshittin' on the scrap thing. New housings, I was not, yeah they are 800 bones but at least you would have piece of mind in that department.
