I'm trying to figure that out now. In that pic, it has Jamex pedals.

Hey guys, it's been awhile.

Got sidetracked from this '52 project with my bus. Now that it's 95% done, time to get back on the splitty!

Engine look familiar Dave(NO_H2O)?

Out of the smack black bug and into this.

Good to see the old 2275 is serving you well. It had a good torque cure that should do well in the bus. We missed you here but I knew you would be into the bus for a while as soon as I saw pix of it. Nice find and nice build to bring it back and update it. Love that bus.

Hi Dave,

Had the trans out of the bus for a 2nd gear down shift grind issue. So since the engine was out, and we had a local dyno day, I brought along the 2276 to play. The engine made 140hp and 130tq. Not too far off the numbers you ran on Jake Raby's dyno many years ago.

Pete

What pump are you using to scavenge the oil from the turbocharger?
