    Ok some time this week im going to go take the 3SGE block I have to the machine shop to get it .20 over bored hot tanked and honed. This block is the exact same as the 3SGTE block for sure? I won't have a problem with bolting turbo components on right? Let me know before I pay $200 to get the wrong block worked. Thanks guys. Im starting on my build woot. $200 down 4,000 to go. lol

    Not exactly true. You can drill and tap the 3SGE for oil squirters. Toysport out of Cali has been doing it for years now.

    some people are picky.

    Yeah...guess it would have helped to read the title huh :lol:

    But if you couldnt find a T block you could order the squirter and parts and have them installed. Any good machine shop could drill into the oil line for you and drill and tap mounting holes.
