Default what do I do with the oil return lines?

I'm about to remove my turbo kit and I just got a few questions. What do I do with the oil lines feed and return? How would I go about capping them off? Anything else I should remember but I don't?

WHere are you running your feed line from? If it's from the back of the block- just remove the T fitting and replace it with the sending unit.

Depending on how you tapped your oil pan for the return- it may be easier just to get a stock replacement pan.

Why do you want to just cap it off? Are you just temporarlly removing the kit?

On mine, I had a flange that looked like the greddy return line welded into my pan, so I just got a rubber cap from autozone and clamped it on there real tight. It won't matter as long as you check it every week or so, and make sure it doesn't loosen itself up.

Would be great, did you send them exhaust flanges? Could you send some of those caps as well? If not just point me to where I can get them.
