How to make a Turbo oil drain flange

[gixxer750]

Turbo Oil drain flange that is AN-10 to stock toyota block


1. Get a stock set of CT26 oil lines

2. Cut the oil drain flange off, and leave about 1-1.5 inches of tubing attached to the block flange.

3. Clean it up good

4. Very carefully and slowly run a 1/2" NPT tap into the flange+1 inch of tubing until it is all nice and threaded. Clean again

5. Take on AN10 to 1/2" NPT adapter fitting, apply a bead of gasket maker to threads.

6 Install AN10 to 1/2" NPT fitting into your threaded flange and tighten until the nut on the AN fitting sits flush onto your 1" piece of tube sticking out of the flange.

Thats it. Takes about twenty minutes.


I accidentally found this out by cutting up some oil lines and finding out that at half inch npt tap will actually thread that.......

Good post !!!
Alternate method....
Just the other day I cut off a stock flange and welded a -10An to 1/2NPT fitting to it.

Doesn't always work with the welding....

The stock yota process uses brazing, and it will creep back up into the weld.
