Default ZC oil feedline?

Wondering where you guys with ZC's have your oil feed lines tapped at the block. Just did a zc swap and now im ready to switch my turbo stuff over from the a6. When we still had the motor out my old feedline wouldnt fit because of the cooler in the way? just wondering if there was another spot to tap or if i just had to get an adapter of some sort.
Thanks in advance

It should just switch over to the zc, all hondas use the same thread on the t, but id call up the oil line company and ask them

once again on here we have someone speaking when they should not be

i taped mine at the oil cooler pull it off 33mm socket and tapped mine right there same place

the reason i said you should not be speaking is that the zc unlike the d series from that time has an oil cooler unlike its brothers and sisters in the d series family

Mine is tapped in at the oil pressure sensor just above the oil filter. Be sure you use a BPT to NPT fitting to come off the block if you choose to go that route.

Does GE or anyone make an oil filter sandwich adapter for the ZC? If someone does, I highly recommend using that over tapping where the oil pressure sending unit is. First off, you're feeding your turbo UNFILTERED oil, and second, I personally experienced a cracked oil pressure sending unit location.

I ran a fitting out of the OPS with a tube going to the firewall to avoid putting that weight on the casting in the block and to avoid running in to the cooler.

BLOCK --&gt; Fitting --&gt; hose --&gt; Fitting --&gt; T (one with OPS and one with feed line).

Check with TunerToys, they have a set up that will work on your ZC.
