Default oil feed head


is it ok to use that as the oil source? i searched and old posts have broken pics but i think most people ask if they can tap it from the vetc soleniod.
but the spot in this pic is fine right? cause i need to run water lines to the turbo also and i can run them all together and ziptie them so its not a mess of lines

Jut tap off the oil pressure sensor, a lot of times you have problems with Vtec engagement from that point.

Why would you risk it anyway, its more work to tap it from there too. Im assuming you will already have the stock sender out to install an OP gauge so you might as well just tap it from there.

sandwich adapters are pointless when u can do the whole setup from the oil pressure sensor for 70$...

just dont mount a tee on the block, it could snap off. put the tees on the firewall.

um no.... a sandwich adapter filters the oil before it goes through the feedline. the oil pressure sensor is dirty unfiltered oil..... think about it

Default Regarding oil supply....

We sell the Golden Eagle adapter, and have never had a complaint. We also offer our own fitting for taking oil from the pressure sensor location, no complaint on those either. No brass, and proper threads.
