Turbo Oil lines....

[bblaweless]

hey everyone!
finally got my hands on a factory turbo setup off my buddies 94....for my 92 7.3
ive almost got everything i need, except for a banks downpipe...the factory one is ridiculous...also need a boost gauge.
only thing im still unsure on is the oil line setup.
i know for the supply line i can just T into the sending unit, no big deal. but im not sure where i am to run the drain line to....can anyone shed some light on this? if youve done it before...whats the best setup here.
cheers
Benny

one more thing to add. Not sure if i would like to do this, but if ive got everything out already, is it worth adjusting the wastegate to allow for more boost? ive read that 10lbs is the max for an NA idi....if its worth it, how do i go about it?
if its not worth it/safe...i wont touch it
thnx

If you dont drill the dimples in the rod it will twist off. The mounting pedestal is the drain. And I have seal kits with IH grommets'

it goes in where the CDR tube once exited on the intake pan. you will need to poke holes in the bottom of the intake pan hole for drainback.

the next two pics are the bottomside of the intake pan. there's three layers actual, the punch hole from the top is covered by the layer you see here at the bottom.

So I only need to punch the one hole inside the drain back hole? I dont need to remove the whole intake pan....awesome
