i think if you just keep rotating the flywheel on the crankshaft, the holes will line up as it only goes on one way... but im not positive here and im unfamiliar with n/a's

ohh im a retard... srry.

One more thing, can I tee onto the "oil cooler" lines for turbo oil in and turbo return, since im using a NA block there are no other oil in and out lines in the block but I could use the turbo oil filter adaptor and plug in the pan I can make it work

Also the position of the oil pan drain hole is different on the NA, will I still be able to get to the oil drain if I use it in a turbo body?

I used an oil filter reloction kit from Summit for 32$ for my NA to NA-T conversion. I just "teed" in the oil cooler after the remote filter.

I welded in a barb in the oil pan for the turbo drain off and took the high pressure oil that goes into the turbo from the oil pressure switch port.

ok buddy your doing this the HARD way.

for oil pressure you have to use a "t" where the oil pressure sending unit is.

for oil drain you have to drill a hole and then weld a bung on the oil pan.

If you dont feel like making your own oil lines then go to www.rabidchimp.com and email aaron garney about making those lines for you.
