i have a crx with a b16 and moroso oil pan. the fitting i have for the oil pan its my crossmember so i cant even put my return line on there. how do i go about putting on my return line?

thanx josh

 

clock your turbo or get traction bars. have fun with that crossmember if you are using a 3" downpipe.

 

It Has Nothing To Do With The Turbo. Its The Fitting On The Oil Pan Hitting The Crossmember

 

Seal up that fitting and then get another one welded on somewhere else in its place. That or try and see if u can get an elbow in there thatll clear the crossmember.

 

either...
1. replace the crossmemeber with an aftermarket piece.
2. Notch the crossmember around the return bung leavig plenty of room for the line to move.
3. Plug the OE bung in the pan and weld another bung elsewhere.
4. Use the bung on the back of the pan.

 

heres the thing,on my old crx b16 turbo my crossmember was causing my return line to cut everytime,cause i had to modify it for my 3" downpipe,so what i did was order me a traction bar from etd racing,guys swore the downpipe would clear,well it didnt,so me and my buddy had to fab it to clear my downpipe,anyways i do have a moroso oil pan as well,and at least the traction bar made so much room for my oil return line,no more problems there,but you would still have to fab up the bar if youre runnin 3" downpipe

That's not true in every case...could just be yours. It depends on the manifold/downpipe combination. Most 3" DPs clear aftermarket crossmemebers/traction bars with no problems.

 

thats right, most of them do.

 

el manifold, t4 60-1. i fixed it i put a 90 an fitting off the pan so it went straight up and ran the line. thanx for your input guys
