Must be functional, no shaft play. Let me know what’s out there. Stock or rebuilt is fine. Going to need it pretty soon.

I posted here hoping to find something local I could just pick up rather than ship. Vortex is a last resort… I’ve come to not like that site very much.

I was considering rebuilds or possibly a cartridge (doesn’t need balanced). We will see. Thanks for the leads.

The one I was looking at sold, must be for an AEB motor.

kilmer - That looks like the right turbo, but the flange I have that connects to the cat looks much different.
