When plumbing the single, is it pretty standard to block off the rear oil return and use the front oil return only?

if your turbo was somehow wedged into the engine bay in a way that it sat directly over the rear return port, then you could use it. BUT, since the turbo has to be moved forward in order to make it fit. . . the front return port is the way to go. plus the pick-up is closer to the rear return and you dont wanna pick up the same oil that just came out of the turbo. let it make its way back there.
