My turbo is literally dumping oil into the exhaust. Anyone know of a good source for a decently priced reman turbo?
Brian, Glad to hear you are up and running. I bought turbo parts from the internet, I looked for the # no luck. I will try in the garage if you want to go that route. The guy was very helpful. Tom Y

Yes Tom, please do let me know who you got parts from as they may have a reman turbo program as well.
dvrasor, I'll check out the Majestic Turbo. I'm assuming they will come up on a google search?
I checked my oil level and it looks like I went through about 1/4 - 1/3 of a gallon of oil over the 40 miles I've put on the engine. Most of it is dripping out of the exhaust system at every joint and leaving a huge cloud of bluish white smoke whenever we were not pushing the engine (i.e. -- foot off the throttle). :-[
I had mine rebuilt locally they did it while I waited, took them a couple of hours, it was around $500 for a 8V92. May be an cheaper option.

Brian -
Have you asked the folk over at C&J where they get their turbos rebuilt?
FWIW & HTH. . .
;)
Are you sure it is the turbo? Have you pulled the exhaust pipe to the turbo to see if it is wet or dry? Good Luck, TomC
