Default Jay L's Turbo Firebird
had a custom turbo kit on it when it came to the shop.. don't have any pictures of the plumbing before we took it off. it wasn't the worst thing we've ever seen... but we can do it better


changing out the k-member with a nice tubular one from Spohn Performance to make some room...

looks like the material from the oil drain you put in, everything looked fine. The larger brown piece is the oil level sender, we replaced it..
