Quick update guys. So trying to get the turbo oil feed line off, I snapped the brass block off. I used my extractor set and pulled the rest of the brass fitting out. I went to Napa and bought another with 1/4NPT all the way around. I bought the wrong AN fitting anyways, so I guess in the end it turned out okay. I have to run to the hardware store and buy the rest of the bolts and stuff to mount the new THDP and turbo. I did manage to get my tranny cooler mounted, and the new drain line put in.

Okay guys.. Its been one HELL of a week. This car is kicking my ass.. Well actually the braided oil feed line is. First, I twisted the 90* elbow trying to put it on.. I had to cut that fitting off. Now the line is too short. I just want to whack myself in the head with a sledge.. I have to replace everything. There goes about 30$ down the drain.. Figures..

Why not just fab up a line out of brake line, that's what the stock line is.

Well. I fixed it. Switched around the fittings, and it seems to fit well. I just had a moment of panic.

It's called a brain fart Zack. Now get some air freshener.
