Default Turbo oil feed line?

Am installling a greddy turbo set-up on a 95 LS and am wondering about the
oil feed line. I've heard that GoldenEagle makes a set-up that installs at the
oil filter and thus puts clean filtered oil to the turbo vs non-filtered oil if it came
from the oil temp outlet. If this is true, could someone tell me what this is and
where I can buy one. Thanks,

You can get it on Golden Eagle's website.
Its around 90 dollars, and it's just a plate that installs between the oil filter and the block.

On their site it's also called a vtec conversion kit, since it can also be used to make an lsvtec. When you look on the description it says it can also be used for oil feed lines.

Hope I helped dude.

what about your crank bearings, soaking in dirty oil? don't you want your crank to have clean oil too? it won't matter whether you use a sandwhich plate or put in a T and run it from the oil temp outlet.

Its actually the other way around. I think GE's outlets are filtered, but most cheap sandwich adapters tap into unfiltered oil.

If you look inside the block, you will see the oil pressure outlet you speak of IS filtered. The main gallery that isn't filtered has no other holes besides the one for the oil pump and oil filter. In other words, any stock oil port you find not on the oil pump will be filtered oil.
