Thanks for the reply.
Do you know if the Greddy units have a tap for filtered oil? Because from the description it sounds like its designed for oil pressure and oil temp gauges, which would'nt require filtered oil.

I used my GReddy block for turbo oil feed, and it worked fine. If it turns out it's not filtered, then you can put the stock oil pressure sender on the GReddy block, and run the turbo oil feed directly from the block without any tees(which I also did).

Im currently using the McMaster Carr vacuum manifold as an oil manifold in my lsvtec setup. Its the 4 port log using 4 1/8" npt fittings and 2 1/4" npt fittings for feed.
I have a -6an for the feed coming off the oil pressure sensor stock location. Then in order of what needs the oil the most is the head-->turbo-->oil pressure gauge. This leaves me 2 ports available and in the future one will be used for an oil temp gauge.
I would recommend that. The fittings and all that can be found for cheap on ebay, definetly less then what the above costs. Plus it looks really nice too!

That's not bad for the new design. I paid $90 for the old style GE, though it was still worth it considering how simply and clean the install was

What difference does it make if it's pre or post filter. It gets returned to the pan and mixed with filtered oil and pumped back through the filter. All the oil gets filtered eventually. All you are doing is subtracting from the overall oil filtration rate a little bit.
