a few people have inquired about the braided oil feed line i have.. its nothing special... but here goes:

this shows the adapter used... i believe the turbo is 3/8th NPT.. but dont quote me cause i honestly do not remember. use your stock 90* fitting when you go to home depot or the local race shop to match the threads. the line i used is -4 AN. so the adapter, if i guessed right, would be 3/8th NPT -> -4 AN

this shows the little setup we had to do to keep the autometer sending unit in the same place. we removed the big stock "union" i think it was called and replaced it with all of this.. once again, i cant remember what size anything is other than the braided line... oh, all that dirty orange crap is from when my rubber heater block off cap burst and spewed crap everywhere
but this is not a difficult task, all you need to know is the turbo threads, the sending unit threads and the block threads, and make sure you convert it to -4 AN line....
oh, and use teflon paste on everything... paste > tape
it took us about a day to figure it out. when my friend gets off work i'll ask him if he remembers what size threads everything was.
