Re: oil pan drain placement (nekkedR)
You want it to look like this. (mine) 
It is on a b16, and it is the drag kit, but all lines should be similar. Try to keep the hole in the oil pan high, and allways have the line downward sloping!

as high as possible and make sure you don;t have it welded in the way of the oil pan bolts and studs...otherwise you won;t be able to mount the bolts and buts..

Re: oil pan drain placement (b18bvudoo)
I would wait. With mine(custom 3" DP) it was a close fit and if you put the oil line in the wrong place, it will not be fun doing it over.
