just a question about vacuum, or lack of?

Hey everyone,

I was looking through my pictures of the vacuum diagrams for my soon to be done non seqential conversion, and I noticed something. The 2 lines that come from the intake elbow from the front turbine. One goes to the PCV valve line up by the oil fller neck, and the other one feeds into the nest, and fits on both oil injectors. Now, im still new at FDs, but ive been working with FC's for a while now. ON Fc's, those lines see boost, I would guess to force the oil into the housings. The way the FD lines are routed, they wouldnt see anything? I mean, that elbow is before the turbine, so, at best it might see vacuum? My question is, what supply do the oil injectors need? Also, When I go single turbine when I get back to the states, can those be hooked up to a source on the IM, IE> seeing vacuum and boost? Am I an idiot? im just trying to figure this out thanks everyone...

The oil injectors need vacuum only , does that answer your question. They do need to be connected as well as the fuel pressure regular, if the stock one is used.
