Parted out, 8 passenger Station Wagon (body is going away in favor of 2000 lb. lighter vehicle). Factory Oldsmobile 350 Diesel powered car (Vin "N"). Tow package w/12 bolt posi diff, load leveling rear suspension, and 2004R four speed automatic O/D transmission (curb weight, quarter tank fuel and driver included - 4700lbs).

Stock exhaust was 2.5" pinched down at the bends to just under 2". Exhaust just removed with engine is 3" from Turbo to right behind rear axle housing then 4" out the right rear corner ahead of rear bumper.

Exhaust removed from wagon, down pipe attachment back to outlet at right rear fender.

Closer shot of exhaust bends needed to clear rear axle housing.

Turbocharged 350 cid Oldsmobile Diesel before removal.

Empty engine compartment.

Heavy 5.7L Diesel on engine stand, front shot. Yes, it is dirty and oily looking. What do you expect a diesel engine with bad machining of the cylinder walls causing excessive blow by and 60K+ miles to look like?

Right side showing Turbo exhaust plumbing.

Lower shot of Turbo down pipe.

Exhaust cross over pipe, left manifold to right manifold, "Y's" up to Turbine housing inlet.

Down pipe removed to view modified manifold. Factory exhaust outlet on right manifold was cut off and hole plated closed.

Turbine housing outlet with custom support bracket allowing removal of turbo without unbolting bracket or down pipe.

Rear of engine, turbo and down pipe.

Closer view of turbo support bracket and down pipe.

Left side of engine, turbo compressor inlet and outlet (non-intercooled in this vehicle so outlet feeds directly into intake).

Closer view of intake and compressor side of turbo.

Final resting place for the Station Wagon Body. R.I.P.

Engine will be undergoing upgrades soon so check back to find out what vehicle it will end up in.
Thanks for looking and please sign my guestbook before you leave.
