You don't need a pic. Look under your OMP, there is a round indent that is what we are talking about. Drill and tap for 1/2 npt fitting.

 

I think I've buggered up and wasted some dosh with my return line.

I got a steel braided line made up to the same size as the original one, which is all good, but I forgot that I've got the new exhaust manifold to shift the turbo away from the steering box, so it's prolly gonna be too short.

I'll have to pull off the turbo tomorrow and check it out.

 

 

Yeah theres the tapping spot now get to it boy.

 

this is my braided line -not hooked up.

 

I got a ? now.



I was told that tapping it for a 10an fitting is what i wanted. Is it? I really know nothing about tapping, i'm doing this swap with a friend, hm..

 

ok, so i guess a braided line is the best way to then.



i'll get back to you guys when its done

 

It's not a problem if the oil filler neck nipple is vented. If you plug it, bad things start to happen, I found out the hard way

 

WTF?What happens when you plug that nipple.I run my NA all day with it capped off.

 

I'm just sying it's ideal to have the oil dump back in above the oil level in the engine. The less restriction on the turbo drain the better.



If you cap all vents to the oil pan you may end up leaking oil by the turbine seal. The oil drain should have no presure on it, by blocking off vents you can trap "crank case" pressure. It's probably not a big deal on your NA but you might start to develop prematue oil leaks.
