oil feed/return questions

ok so me and a buddy are gonna be installing my turbo finally and i have a quick question


the oil feed line gets tapped into the oil pan and a bung gets welded correct?

what are the steps to installing the oil drain line? ... just a rough description would be fine...

I think your a bit confused. the feed line MUST come from either the oil pressure sensor on back of the block, or via a oil filter sandwich adapter like golden eagle makes. The turbo drain on the other hand should tap into the oil pan at as high of a location on the pan as possible. Similar to this photo, sorry its a little blurry. You can also check out the link on my currently lame signature
