Turbo manifold interest

[lanciahf]

I contacted Mark at Allisons Motors, http://www.allisonsautomotive.com/ about creating turbo exhaust manifold for Spiders. He said he might be able to do it if there was interest. I was wondering if anyone on this board would buy one if he was able to give us a price point.

I have an 82 Turbo, but it was removed. I have the actual Turbo (which doesn't spin) and nothing else. I don't even know all the parts I would need to get the system back together. Assuming this is a key part I would be interested. Also any advice on where to accumulate the rest (nothing on ebay) would be appreciated.

I would be interested. I think there was talk on the mira forum about getting a foundry to make PBS like turbo manifolds also....

I have a 82 turbo and have the same issue it seems ( to be determined for sure this week by our mechanic), so i would definately be interested! Also any info anyone would like to share on the turbo would be appreciated.

All we have to do now is beg Mark Allison of So Cal Mark to make us one.

Mark? Please?

[So Cal Mark]

I've had enough interest that we're looking into building a header that would accomodate a T3 turbo.

[Shane124]

If you come up with it, would it work on a 78 that has never had a turbo?

[So Cal Mark]

yes

Mark,

If you're serious about it, and need a visual pattern, I may have a Spider turbo manifold sitting around. Let me make sure I still have it. It's yours if you want it...I'm sure I'll get around to making one of the runs soon, I can hand it off then.

A T25 or T25BB seems to be a good fit for our spiders. A T25 is physically smaller than a T3 and might make fitments easier. Price looks good for a real Garrett Turbo.

My 1982 Spider Turbo 2000 has a cracked exhaust manifold and I am thinking of removing the Turbo altogether, unless anyone knows of a replacement manifold. Also, any info on what needs to be changed or any problems when removing the Turbo system.

Thx, Lo

Not a bad price on the 25BB !

You guys can find many companys make custom headers already
so finding someone to make a few of these wouldn't be hard !

We dont need to find anyone. WE HAVE MARK. sometimes you just dont make any sense.

[bandit]

There is nothing wrong with options is there Ray ? As far as i can
tell Mark doesnt even have a manifold yet ? Custom Headers run
about 500 to 600 Dollars made to your own specs !

This aint about options. For once in your life, be honest. You got a problem with Mark. He has done nothing but help people and give free advice when needed, to anyone. He dosent bs people, like someone I wont name, and he dosent build engines that dont work and are not even salvageable. And his shop is not imaginary. And he dosent post pictures of cars he cant afford, that dont even have anything to do with this site.How many times are we gonna have to do this.
Oh i almost forgot, he dosent have an imaginary club that does imaginary runs. We have pictures from our runs. This dosent feel good. Ive lowered myself to your your level, now i need to go take a shower. Isnt it time to go back to Asia. Have a nice day. Well as nice a day as a snake can have anyway. To everyone else, I apoligize for this rebuttle. But this guy is so annoying.
