my old skool WG

Has anyone ever seen one of these old skool Turbonetics ext wastegates before? It clamps onto your header with U clamps. I won it acouple of day ago and finally came today! I thought it was a steal and the wastegate is brand new!! I bought a 38mm WG flange also so then I'm just gonna weld it to the WG and voila a 25 dollar ext wg! Even came with some old 1988 Turbonetics catalog too and some V8 carb turbo install directions. Damn for that price I couldn't pass it up! It came with some other ---- but I have to clue to what it is. One just looks like a cast chargepipe and the other I'm completely baffled by. I'll have to crack 'er open and see what psi spring is in it.

Re: my old skool WG

Rubber is good as gold

Damn are the springs usually that big for WG's? It's like 1 3/4" OD and 2" tall. I have no clue to what PSI this thing is so I'll just ordered one from Turbonetic and play on the safe side.
