FM turbo water lines
 

Question... the written instructions for the FM NA/NB turbo kit says to bolt the inboard water line to the upper mount on the turbo compressor housing bracket. But the installation video says the opposite.

Does it matter?

NOPE
 

I'm sure you've moved past this, with a reread of instructions.

I installed my fm turbo kit on the stock engine then a few months later on a built engine.

The first install I did not bend the hard water pipe under the manifold enough. Had to take it off and bend it again.
Be sure and give it a good pull.

Thanks! I must have missed that part of the instructions. I was thinking it mattered for thermal siphoning or something like that, but maybe that doesn't apply here.

Heat shield
 

While I'm at it, On the second install I went with a blanket.
I had even banged the fm shield out so it cleared the Elbow.
The blanket saves you from all the Heater hose, Elbow (downpipe), clearance hassles. Plus the ground strap
