I'm looking for Turbos for my 8-71s. I have seen 1700 for new ones and everything from 900 to 3000 for remans.
Any reccomendations? Mine have some end play and are letting oil into the intercooler. They haven't come apart so I guess they would be eligible as cores ( they seem to be about 700).8

Re: 8--71 Turbo Replacements
Above advice is good. You also didn't say how much oil. As for the oil after the turbo, that is something normally seen because your engines are ingesting the crank case gases.

Avenger, here's the tag I pulled the easy off tonight. I've got oil in the intercooler and some wobble in the shaft.
