Single Turbo Install ?
 

I am half way through doing my single turbo install. I have read up alot about what I need to do but would like some clarification on a few points that I havent found so far. I have already mounted the manifold, done most of the heat shielding and removed the rats nest and soliniod rack. So as it stands right now I have removed most of the stuff under the manifold. I will be using Crispy's vac hose diagram so I have that taken care of. My question lies with the oil and coolant lines.
I have already capped off the two coolant lines on the neck as well as ordered block off plates for the single.
1.) Which oil lines am I going to need to use? There is one right near where the turbo goes that connected to the hard line on the twins (hard line itself) rx7store suggested just removing the feed line completly and going with a braided line straight to the block. It looks like this traces back to the fuel rails..
2.) The oil return line on the turbo is designed for a hose rather than a line. Where should I plumb this hose back to (looks like oil pan)? will I need an adapter? and if so who sells them?

also, any hints about cleaning up underneath the uim would be helpful as well.

Neal, there is already a pick up tube that comes off the block down by the oil meter pump. If I remember it was the oil line for the primary twin. In anycase it's about 3"-4" long and has flanges on the ends. On is bolted to the block, the other flange you need to hack off and you can slip that oil return line on there. Or you could always get AN fittings and swap it to that. Youcan get fittings and what not from turbonetics or google for turbo and find other places for shit like that.

I would swap that hard feed line to braided like RX7store suggests. You can follow the line back and see where it is attached at.

is that the one that is attacted to a banjo bolt on the other side of the alternator?

No I think you are thinking about the oil cooler lines. This is a small metal pipe about 1/2" wide (about the same size as that green hose i gave you) and it's by the oil metering pump.

dave you have a pm

I was going by crispy's writeup on his gt35 for the oil lines

KG parts has a block off plate, an all stainless line for the feed, and the adapter to use for the single turbo conversion at a very good cost.... www.kgparts.com .... i use those pieces and they work great
