I finally got motivated to go to the hanger and pick up my type 4 case half's
to start the process of trying to get the aluminum cam gear slivers out of the
case.
Except for the recommendation to buy a new case, are there any suggestions out
there on Things I might check or do.

As most anyone that follows the net knows, Tweety became seriously ill on the
way home from Mt Vernon. I finally opened her engine to detect the reason for
her illness. As I had previously stated, the cam was not turning and I had
suspected a break. I was wrong. The full story:During

twenty minute run at up to 2500 rpm, there was no si
I how join the other believers in knowing that a turbo does require a
scavenge pump.
Orma - can you please explain a bit about the location of this scavange pump
in terms of the oil routing and how it is driven. I assume that this turbo

Hi Ron and Bill
I'm not going to pretend that I understand all the engineering that goes
