Pyro putty?

Well, I really don't want to mess with it at the moment. The car is down due to dead transmission bearings plus a clutch job for good measure. Just waiting for parts from TRE that he shipped like a week after he said he would. I figured while I had everything out I would hunt for the leak and there it was. Maybe I'll get a new turbo for the white car and take the turbine housing off the questionable 14b on there now.

Pyro-Putty

It's one of those things that have been around for a long time but really isn't advertised. I've used the Pyro-Putty 2400 and it's one of the few things that can stand the heat from the turbo. You can get it at McMaster Carr I think for around $30. I wouldn't count on it for for holding a load but it's great for patching cracks.

I've got a few 14b housings I can part with. They're not in the greatest shape, but they're better than yours. PM me if you're interested.

Hmm... I'd like to see if Pyro-Putty works!
