need help on specs of this turbo....
according to the seller, its from a 1980 Buick Sport Coupe w/ 30k on it. supposedly no in/out or side play.
he has no info about it, its been sitting in his garage since 1982 when he replaced the car with a 350. So basically, it almost 30 years old
anyone have any type of specs on the turbo? i know that i will have to do weld a new inlet and outlet onto the compressor housing (or find a new hosing), but thats no big deal.
The numbers listed on the turbo are p/n 25512231 and s/n LDRO225 or LDR0225 (not sure if its a zero or the letter O)
here are some pics for your reference....

Re: need help on specs of this turbo....
thanks for the suggustion ryan. i did try to fit some searching for all kinds of things that dealt with turbo buicks but never ran across the specs of this particular turbo. I did find info on the newer turbo that was on the grand nationals, but thats about it. I will do some more searching today since I will have some more time at work to do so.
i was hoping that one of the turbo spec guru's knew off hand.

The seller is local and only wants $50 for the turbo and carb intake and didnt supply the info about any numbers on the turbo. I will ask and see what he says.

Re: need help on specs of this turbo....
this is what i am finding...
Turbine A/R - 0.82
Compressor A/R - 0.42
other pictures i have located have this listed as an AiResearch turbo. So, i would bet the housing are easily swapable.
can anyone confirm?
