Is this a Van Turbo??

I found this Turbo and was curious if this is the non-ball bearing Van Turbo that many of you have put on your F-Series?? The seller says it is but just wanted to make sure it was. Thanks guys http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Garre...QQcmdZViewItem

CatMan I take it you operate a 963? Run a 631E myself. Are you a 49er?

Guys,

What makes the van turbo more desireable over the pickup one? I'm curious since I'm about to purchase my first PSD.

Thanks

Good buy 1468LP and congrats.
Well, With 15 seconds to go, I had my finger on the trigger for a max bid of $425 but decided I didn't need it that bad. Would I have won?

1468LP, now you need one of dieselinnovations' adapters for the turbine outlet so it will mount up to the downpipe you have. its $100 on their site, www.dieselinnovations.com
