Anyone seen a failure like this before ??
Ran 4000+ miles / 15 months just fine, then it let go at 80mph on the freeway two nights ago. Dumped all the oil instantly, sudden loss of oil pressure, got it shut off within about 5 seconds, but I fear the worst.
Turbo (GTB2260) seems to have survived it, so maybe there is hope ?
I have to go out of town for a week, so it will be next weekend before I can pull the bottom end apart.
I dug back through my build photos from 2013, you can see the plug fully, correctly installed here. No idea what I did wrong, but I need to figure it out before try again !
