i am tryin to get everything finished up on my topmount, but im alittle stuck on the oil return line.
my old oil pan is tapped below runners 3 & 4, but now that i have a top mount on that location wont work. (without running the return line though the runners)
i thought i could just move it over (new oil pan obviously) but the topmount runners are kinda low, and i dont want the line to dip. i would have to tap the pan almost where it starts to curve around towards the crank pulley to completely avoid the topmount runners.
im running a -10 return line, and a 45 coming off the turbo (so i can angle it pretty much any direction)
im looking for what others that are running topmounts have done,
pictures are worth 1000 words
so, if anyone has a picture of how they have thier oil return setup with a topmount please post it up.
thanks in advance

thank you for the pic.
my manifold runners are a bit lower then your, id perfer to keep the return bung up as high as possible on the pan.
anyone else have a pic?
