wow, hose from hell.
blew, you'll want to use some Aeroquip line. you'll want to find someone who will be able to modify your oil pan and add a return. you may also think about something like an oil filter relocation kit along with an oil cooler whick my route to you turbo. the only thing is, i don't know that the stock oil pump will be able to supply the oil pressure necessary to do this. it's a thought anyway.

dude, you can't expect just to tap the block and have oil pressure on tap! that's why i suggested a oil relocator kit. the kit would provide an outlet for oil flow. by trying to get it to pass through the sandwich adaptor plate, to the turbo, to the oil cooler and back into the oilpan, (i think) will provide both an outlet and a means by which the oil can cool before being recirculated. i just don't know if your stock oil pump will be able to provide enough pressure. when you have your oil pan modified, you'll probably want to have it TIG welded.

ok, here' s the dealie:
you can use a tee or a block sort of like a NOS fuel thing and tap the oil sending unit. i found-out that the oil filter relocator will be too much oil. the pan will still need to have a return bung put into it.
