What do you think about returning the turbo line in this spot?



Some input will be great

Thanks

That would not be a good idea, its a machined galley way to the second stage scavange pump. It must be mounted higher up to avoid dumping into the oil level inside the engine.

update,
i got my gilmers from tweakit last week. they look great by the way. i have not run them on the motor yet, but they look stong and well crafted. the only problem i had with them was that the water pump pulley's center bore was not quite large enough, so i had to hone it out a bit. i have no idea why that would be the one thing that wasn't perfect, but oh well.

i still am having trouble finding info on the rear regulator. does anyone know if this guy can be replaced with a bolt? i've got my external regulator, so that should be all i need right? if i block of my rear regulator i will just make a special plate with a SINGLE inlet line to place on the top of my oil filter surface (the filter itself is no longer mounted here). this plate will allow oil to flow into the block from where the outlet of the filter should be, but will block off where the filter inlet should be.

do i have the oil circuit right in assuming this will work? any input would be great!

You are correct when using a external regulator, the OEM spot in the rear can be blocked off. Thats all you need
