turbo oil return line

[zombie]

here's my question. I am putting an 85 engine in my 86 t-type i hooked up the oil return line into the pte remote oil system . I put a T-fitting in line with the oil going to the filter. Will the pressure be to high for the oil circulate or will it back up in the turbo ? If it will where should I run the line to ? Any help will be appreciated hopefully I can start it tomorrow it has been down over a year . Thanx

IMHO, I don't think you should use that line for the oil return.
The oil needs to drain without pressure being on the drain line.
With pressure on the line, the oil may back up inside the turbo and blow the seals or worse.

I'm guessing that you don't want to drill the block for a stock drain so the next best area is the front cover.
Some have used the mechanical fuel pump plate area. You will have to get a longer line made up to do that.
I have also seen the oil drain going into the passenger side of the front cover on one car.
