Default Oil feed line from Head on VTEC motors??

I have been searching and reading archived content and so on, I have read that there is a location under the distributer you can use, and even theres another spot on the head.

Can anybody grace me with a picture of there feed line from the head and what size parts you used. Thanks

Most don't do this any longer, because of the head's dependency on oil. DSMs have been known to do this because of 2 reasons. 1) head design allows for it to be tapped to work on a Mitsubishi cartridge already. 2) the Mitsubishi cartridge is not as oil dependent as those used on the Garrett, so on your application, not only could you starve the head itself, you could destroy your turbocharger as well.

The access to the head is typically best for the LS/VTEC conversions on B-series Hondas. there are literally thousands of reliable setups that work well from the back of the block at the oil sending unit. No reason to reinvent the wheel.
