Default Pics of oil return line setups??

Got any? I was going to use 2 45 swivel fittings, a 3/8 to -10an adaptor(Art's list)....it looks like the 45 off the turbo is going to make the line swing down too far, and the line will have to go up to make it to the top of the oil pan.

Anyone else have this problem?

I just ordered a 90 deg fitting...so if that doesnt work I will have to buy a straight fitting.

the 90 Deg that you have, is it the pipe thread to AN union, male to male ?

if that is so, then all you need is to hook up the swivel fitting to it from thr turbo...

I had it like yours before, then I went with straight down ...



see, I use a 90 union, then use the 45 deg fitting, it works, I was leaking a few drops of oil a week...but then I opted for the straight fitting, and never leaked afterwarsd...

This is shot from above.
Used the flange adapter to a pipe-an10 fitting. Then a 45--line--45 to bulkhead in the pan.
No drops of oil whatsoever.
