Is the old turbo motor blown or damaged beyond repair? if not it should bolt right up. Others here will know allot more. Quote -Thad What America needs is less bull and more Bulldog!

Lmackattack Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 there are no piston coolers on the non turbo engine. I assume you could drill and tap them but then you might get metal shavings into the oil system. not a great idea unless you have the engine torn down. If I remember correctly the timing is also diffrent between the turbo and non turbo engine. I will have to recheck the books on that one.

fullfuel01 Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 pump set-up must change too, not the same fuel with 0 boost and 20? psi! for the cooling jet under the piston, it also depend on how you use your truck. if you work with it, well it may not be the right thing to do, but if it's a toy that you just want to add a turbo I'm pretty sure you won't burn that engine Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/1654-673-engine/#findComment-8176 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks RonThey started calling them E6's sometime in the early '80's,and still offered the ENDT675 and ENDT673C as the E6-237 and the E6-250. They were still using the old numbers for the factory reman engines,the '66 R609 I bought last month has a '86 "Pedigree Rebuilt" ENDT673C in it.
