Turbo oil feed line?

[redneckroot]

I am in the middle of putting on my turbo, but the oil feed line (not sure if that is what you call it) has a larger fitting on it then what the turbo will allow, looking at the threads in the turbo I think they are even different, not sure what I should do? Its a HTT turbo that I bought used the guy before me had it on a 2nd gen.

On your 1990, you will need the adaptor that came on the later turbos. I saw an extra I have around a few weeks ago in the basement- I'm not even going to promise to look for it, since I wont find it when it is the object of my search. It'll be in the way next time I look for something else.

I went through the same thing when I put my S300 on my 89. I called a cummins shop and had them order the one that fits the second gen turbos. I would give you the part number but it came in a clear bag with no numbers on it.

does anyone know of any place else to get one? Or does anyone have one? thanks for the reply's I figured there was something

Any local dodge or cummins dealer will be able to order one. Its just the 2nd gen turbo oil inlet adapter as stated above. Think mine were like 15 bucks.

Dont forget CaseIH, either- ag or industrial.

what size and thread type is the turbo? thanks for the reply's the closest cummins dealer is bout an hour and a half away, so if I can find out that thread I'll do some searching local first.

just go to any hard ware store and find the pipe fittings. thats what i did when i put on my A3k.

I was under the impression it was a special fitting that required an o ring.

I had the shop send one to my house. It was pretty cheap. The closest shop to me is an hour away.
