ITzDarcy Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 Hi again ratsuns. I need advice On where to tap into to get my oil supply to the turbo. I have looked and thought about it but still can't grasp it. Thanks for all the help. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 There is an oil sender on the pass side of the block under the intake on a Z engine. It's a 1/8" BPT British Pipe Thread or British Standard Pipe (I forget) You will need an adapter from that to a NPT (National Pipe Thread) Tee, with two outlets. One for your oil line to the turbo, the other with an adapter back to BPT for your stock oil sender, or replace the sender with a NPT thread from some North American car??? . Quote Link to comment

ITzDarcy Posted August 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 okay ... maybe should have done this when I had the engine out but o well. So I haven't taken a picture yet but I had a look around on the web and I think you're talking about the plug thing to the left of the oil filter that has a switch connection on the end of it?So I need something with 2 outlets that screws in the place of the oil sender(oil sender removed)?so the oil sender and feed line can also plug into the 2 outlets? is this correct? thanks Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 Yup. Keep in mind the block is tapped with 1/8 BPT thread. Quote Link to comment
