so after putting in the T28 which is NOT i repeat NOT a direct fit from the T25, with everything back in after the first start up it starts squirting out oil. so i check and its leaking between the block and oil line fitting from the turbo... turns out the threads in the block are stripped! im very frustrated right now, ive tried using some teflon tape to seal it up, i tried more washers, still nothing.
can someone help me please, some suggestions on what to do and if anyone else has had this problem let me know what you did to fix it. and yes i know most people will just say re tapp it, so thanks but that will be my last resort. please help.
