I am in the middle of doing a custom turbo kit and I am at the point where I need to gather all the lines and fittings for the turbo. My turbo is a water cooled 60-1, so I need a line in and out to for both the oil and coolant. After inspecting the turbo, the water inlet and outlet are made to accept a flange as opposed to a threaded fitting. What has everyone used to connect the coolant lines from the motor to the turbo? I was considering taping right into the hard lines from the motor? Does this sound like a good idea or is there a better way? I assume the turbo coolant flanges can be purchased at any turbo shop? If anyone has any pictures I would love to see them. What size lines is everyone using for the coolant and oil?
Thanks in advance!

 

Some of those flange areas are already tapped - did you look in the holes?&nbsp You can always tap them yourself - be careful with all the metal shavings!

I did notice that shortly after I posted this. I'm sure I can figure it out on my own but I was just hoping someone might be able to post some pics, make suggestions and possibly save me some time.
