oil feed and return lines?

[duh2150]

I was wondering how everyone hooked up there feed and return lines I have a evo 8 oil pan with a evo 8 turbo, I was thinking about using a sandwich plate but don't know the AN fitting sizes could someone help me out with this? maybe some pics I was looking at gooseys pics but some of the stuff I'm looking for isn't posted or taken a picture of

any suggestions? thanks

I'd like to know about the vacuum routing also but that can be another day

wouldn't GOOSEY have those fitting settings, he's running an evo8 turbo as well. check his turbo thread.

i did its 4 and 10, he isnt using a evo 8 oil pan as well unless he changed it., plus id need adapters.. to cover the bolt holes in the pan, i guess i could get them off ebay?

[run1206]

The adapters can be found on eBay, I think I got mine there, just don't remember the link though :(

I got both my feed and return off ebay prob about 45 for both w/ flanges for turbo only had a guy I work w/ weld a 3/16 plate about 2X3 then just drilled and tapped the plate used 1/4 brass used a close nipple brass 1/4 45 and 1/4 x 2 1/2 nipple return line fits snug on the pipe and use hose clamps I just need to find out what size fitting to get for the oil filter houseing to tie in the feed

the sandwich plates should feed to -4 an for the inlet and you probably want -10an for the drain. I dunno what adapter is used on the feed for the turbo though but usually u need a special adapter. Search on evo tuner or ebay for an oil feed line and it should include an adapter. You can use the oil pressure sender hole in the back of the block or the sandwich plate.

Edit u can check this link out for an adapter to -4an.. u can google it and find more im sure

thanks guys, I'm going to be guying the feed parts like tomarrow or so, the only still problem is the drain still, they only come with one end to bolt down, I'm gonna end up building my own 8 an line for a drain

If your using an EVO turbo and pan there is an easy cheap way and an expensive. The cheap way is to buy a stock EVO return line and use the flanges and about 2" of tube on each and cut the rest out, flare the edges of the tubes and joint them with a rubber line and hose clamps.

The expensive and more durable way is to make it using AN lines. The problem with the kit you posted on Ebay is it doesnt have both flanges that you need. You will need one flange for the turbo and one for the pan. It looks like that kit you posted has a weld on flange and a pan flange which makes no sense. If you check around EVOM you will find the right adaptor flanges, between flanges, fittings and hose expect to spend about $85-$100 to do it the right way with -10AN line/fittings.

Thats the right kit but read the fine print, doesnt include the gaskets, make sure you order them. Also make sure you ask them for a longer length of -10 hose, go for 2 feet just to be safe incase you mess up a cut and need to make another a few inches down. Also the angle of the fittings you need will depend on turbo placement. Im not sure exactly what manifold your using, I know on my top mount, I use straight fittings on both ends, by doing that it forces the hose itself to make a backwards " L " shape so my downpipe and dump tube clear it.

If i had a pan to play with that was off the car, i'd have fittings welded onto it.

If i didn't feel like paying for that, I'd take the stock 64 pan, and install some bulkhead -10an fittings.

you literally drill the hole, slide the fitting through with high pressure o-rings on each side, and lock it down on the other side with a nut. done.

I had the -10 welded to my pan as well because I didnt have the pan on the motor yet. I welded it to the EVO pan since it has that flat angled area, it makes it a little easier to run the hose.

I did this for Drew aka Run1206's oil pan.
