turbo oil pressure line on the 4g64 block

[gimmeagalant]

tried finding info on this and couldnt get a straight answer on where the pressure feed line goes in the block. any1 got an answer? I know it feeds back into the oil pan from the turbo but not a clue where the oil pressure comes from

theres no line really, in short its fed from the pickup that sits in the oil pan sump which then goes through the oil pump and gets distributed to the oil galleys through the vians in the oil pump case assembly cover, and of course it goes through the oil filter housing. i got a brand new one sitting here ill see if ican snap a pic.

what are you trying to do anyway?

well im still debating on turboing with a 16g setup and pretty much everything is fairly upfront on the setup. but the oil pressure feed to the turbo is whats confusing me as to where it comes from on the block. its getting to a point where i think ima just make the g a show car, (system, paint, body, etc.) and just find a sbc to build for my adrenaline rushes when i wanna have fun but idk yet

oh and to the other question you can T off where the oil light sensor is which would be a low press. zone i believe or you can get an adapter that goes on your oil filter housing and then take it from there, that would be a higher press. zone since the oil just left the pump. im not sure about the 16g but some turbos are picky when it comes to oil pressure ill try to find out if it matters are not for the 16g.

the the oil filter housing adapter looks like this:

as i read before on club3g the 16g evo viii turbo only likes low pressure so all you need tog et is a restricted fitting for the feed like search there and you will find alotta answers

so he would be fine taking it from the oil light sensor aka idiot light from the side of the block, cool.
