Pulled motor last night and I have a few questions....Does anyone know where I can find a step by step manual for the install of a Banks Sidewinder? I got mine out but don't know how its going back in but I can tell you it won't be in the order it came out.....The oil line for that turbo is tied into the old sending unit for the oil pressure, correct? Then the sending unit is on the turbo..correct? Can I replace that SU with one from Auto-meter to work with my oil pressure gauge on the pillar?
Lastly, anyone know what size the fan clutch nut is? I can't find the proper tool around here and since I live in the boonies I tried everything withing a 1.5h drive with no luck so its time to improvise, or if all else fails, get a bigger hammer....thanks

Found a large cresent wrench, a ratchet strap and a log splitter (w/ a 4cyl wisconsin and a ram from a D8) the clutch came right off. I also went digging through the box of stuff from the PO that I got 4 years ago and found the Banks manual along with every reciept down to $4 air fittings.
