How much side to side play shold there be in a ta-49 turbo? I have just recently purchased a complete engine, Lots of great parts inside low miles since build, the previous owner could never get it to run as it should and blamed it on a bad ecm. I have had the engine to a good machine shop and all the stuff on the inside looks brand new, and was told that the specs were almost perfect, ie rod and crank balance, bearing etc., was told by the machine shop that the heads were only gasket matched and a little additional porting would help the motor breath better. The turbo was purchased from Kirbans by the previous owner but it seems to have alot of up and down play? what do you fellows think?
