I called AAA (auto club) to tow my car to my friend's shop. I also check the oil. The oil seem to be ok, therefore, its not the gasket. It might be the pistons or rings, since i am loosing boost.

I do have a V8 Motor at home, but its all seperated. Once of my friends is very much into SC400. Matter of fact, he has 3 SC400. He has an V8 engine that he can sell it to me for $400. The engine has about 40k miles from a 95 SC400

Engine is $400, Labor is $600 plus few misc gaskets. We are looking at about $1,200 job.

Ouch!!! but its still a good deal. I will have a nearly new engine. Never know, its might be TT again.

To answer Jbrady's question about controlling fuel and timing. Greddy E-Manage can do both. I also talked to my mechanic (specialized in hi-pro Mustangs) suggest that i use Rising Fuel Pressure Regulator and FMU. I think i will go that route.

The shop with my car right is doing a leak down test. I will let u know what happen. The result might not be good.

Slightly good news, i called my mechanic and he hasnot done the leak down test yet. He stated that my turbos are full of oil. It could be that my turbos are bad along with broken oil seal that i am not making boost and leaking oil.

That is good news. I can easily replace the turbos. However, since the turbos are imported from Thailand, I will not get until begining of next year. Meanwhile, NA

sorry to hear that man the LS400TT was an awesome project, hopefully you can get it going again.

i went for a totally aftermarket programmable ECU that does ignition and fuel on my project.

good luck and keep on trying.

Nice try Healer and wish you the best next time on the TT. It was very interesting for all of us while it lasted.
