Dont just tell him to drill a hole......

Make the fitting as high as possible or the oil cant drain, or just buy an oil pan with the bung already installed.

this might be pretty simple depending on your setup but what i would do is mount the turbo, mani and dp, dump and maybe even some of the hotside charge pipes. then put on the return line and see what the best route would be. you want the fitting mounted as high as possible like stated easlier. mark it then remove the oil pan, drill your hole and get the fitting welded. or you could use a weldless setup if absolutely necessary.

take your time with it and make sure you have a nice, downward sloping line with no kinks. its gonna be a pain if you ever have to move the fitting or redue the line cause of smoking issues.

I personally like the bulkhead fitting setup better. It's better against leaks vs. bung and brass fitting from what I've seen.

well the moroso pan has a fitting on it already. but if something happens and that location doenst work for you, then you are kinda screwed. its really not that hard to just tap the pan yourself.
