I don't see any reason that you can't replace the SF one with that. Just buy the right size flanges that will match your line.

yeh
if you want to
there are a good number of ways to do it. Just depends on how much you wanna spend. I have Earls fittings.
The only real thing to worry about is making sure the turbo sits higher than the pan where the oil will flow down. ( works on gravity, not pressurized like feed)

Probably, I had to trim a few inches off of mine for it to fit better. I guess it depends on where you drill your hole but I would assume 18" is enough.
