Almost There!
Well, its been a long wait, but I am almost there... I now have all my parts (accept the heads that will be ready on Friday). I hope to be putting my new motor in on Saturday.
I do have one question though... I received my new H2E, and had a quick shuffle through the boxes... It appears this may be a pretty serious project in itself fitting this new turbo on... Anyone have any words of wisdom? At least I get to fit it all up when its sitting on the engine stand in front of me...
I am a little confused by the Pedistal... I have a large flat bracket (about 3/8" or better) thick... I can't seem to find the peice that connects that plate to the turbo... Anyone describe it to me?

Here are a few... (I started taking pics AFTER I put the pistons in... Should have started before...) The ones I have in there now, are fitting up the H2E.

Nice pics, BTW. If the thing you're asking about is the wastegate solenoid, then yes you can just disconnect it. I yanked mine off when I went to the van turbo.

That Photo is of the little thing that the Green and RED hoses plug into... Can it be disconnected?
