I tapped the front of the oil pan for my returns. Not the prettiest but a nice short, steep drain. 3/8 NPT + 3/8 NPT pipe works perfect with 5/8" (-10AN) hose.

go to kurt urban performance, he has a adapter that screws in where your oil pressure sender goes. It has provisions for multiple -4 feed lines which should be plenty for ya.

on my lsx block there is a plug on the driver side front , this is where i got my oil supply from, you can use the block off plate where the cooler lines go but i wanted to keep my oil cooler to help keep the temp down on the oil , between two turbos and no oil cooling the temps could get pretty high and cause problems you wouldnt never know.

i welded two -10 drains on each side of the oil pan for each turbo.

I'm curious where people are getting their oil supply when they have the stock oil cooler setup. I'd rather not use something like the Kurt Urban Performance part but that's an option if I have to go that route. Has anybody used either of these ports as an oil source?



Silver port in the middle of the picture.



The port on the side of the oil cooler setup which houses, what I assume to be, an oil bypass.

Port on the side is just a plug, at least it was on my 2500hd truck. I drilled and tapped a feed hole adjacent to the rear pipe by the plug and have had no issues in 20k miles on my front mount kit.

this one feeds and keeps the factory cooler

and this is one a friend of mine started making , you can orientate the fitting any way you wish and plug other ports or use two , one for each turbo

I cracked mine open today and it has, what appears to be, an oil bypass in it. The plug looks like NPT with an o-ring on it. I think I'm going to size it tomorrow and order up an o-ring NPT/-4 AN adapter and use this as my oil source, unless someone has a reason not to. I believe it is post oil cooler.

Is the fitting that's about level with the crank the one you're talking about? If so, whats the size on it? Any problems clearing the power steering setup?
