Post any really nicely installed setup. About to put in my turbo and have considered using AN fittings and a vacuum box if posssible

I just did this LS and I ran the oil line between the block and the timing belt I used some stainless steel oil line brackets and bolted it to the head to keep it away from the belt I think it looks very clean and the customer liked it a lot.

for the most reliable and clean looking feed setup just get a oil filter plate like golden eagle or Greddy. It eliminates the problems with miltiple Ys off the stock oil pressure sender port including a dumb looking Y fitting on your fire wall. All you can see is the oil feed line, no other hardware. I hate stupid distribution block things. they are only good for making your motor look more 'tech' and fruity.

Pictures of my Vacuum line dist block and the Greddy sandwich plate I used for my oil feed line.

For a real nice/clean setup. Simply pull the intake manifold, drill and tap some 1/8" npt holes in the manifold and you're done. That's the "cleanest" and nicest installation IMO. All these distribution blocks, etc. make a mess of vaccuum lines and just add one more thing sitting in the engine bay.

I don't have any pics off hand, but seeing as how so many people get aftermarket manifolds and it's sitting off the car already, might as well do it then. That and the plenum for the type-r/skunk2/jg etc. manifolds sits right up top so you can easily get to the vacuum sources on the back of the plenum.

I totally agree with that. When I change injectors I will be going that route. Until then a nice dist. block is better than a handful of tee's any day.

got pictures slowteg?

Ok I'll try to post a pic but it's really nothing special. Just drill and tap two holes next to the vaccuum line for the brake booster, and you can usually get some brass 1/8" npt to nipple fittings at a local parts store.

Ok.. here's a try..

Wow it worked! As you can see it's pretty simple, nothing special. One nipple goes to the wastegate, one goes to the bov.

Sorry but damn that ****'s a mess. I don't know if anyone else makes one, but inline sells little al flanges that are threaded so u can run an external map sensor in the spot of the factory one.

Exactly!! that setup and an oil adaptor plate is as close to stock as you can get. That golden eagle vac manifold ^ is hidious compared to a few well placed barb fittings in the manifold.
