Single turbo oil drain fittings.

Hey guys, I've had my oil drain for my turbo...not up to par. I have a precision turbo that has a -10 oil outlet. Right now there is a fitting with a barbed end for a hose to clamp onto. Id like to replace this flange with another one with a/n fittings (unless the turbo has threads under the flange). If anyone knows what the flange on our fd block is and where to get it with the turbo drain flange, and or the distance between the block and the turbo so i can order the line, it would save me lots and lots of time. Thanks everyone

I know its dirty :/

We have an entire kit for $150 if you'd like, comes with all you'll need and you just cut the end of the line to where you need to and assemble the last AN fitting. Saves you from sourcing it.

Just pm us.

When I did my conversion, I removed the oil drain hard line you have pictured, then chopped off the tube, leaving just the flange.
Then welded (well my friend welded) some tube bend on there at the correct angle with a -10 fitting on the end. You can see it in this picture.
The hose is really short. Maybe only 1.5 " of braided hose on my setup.
If you just get a foot or two it should be heaps for most any setup.

you should be able to get a standard t4 drain flange and drill the holes wider to fit the fd block mount studs.
