oil feed lines usually plug in where the stock oil pressure sensor is on the back of the block, and then hook in to the turbo at the center section.

for the oil sensor you have to use a t fitting to allow the stock sensor to still work, and have a spot for the feed line to connect in before the sensor.

where is that sensor? How far down the block is it? I have the connector to do this.

Looking at the pictures you might need those special wrenches used for fuel lines, I have them but don't know their specific name.

I dunno. but the size for a d series oil pressure sender is supposed to be a 27mm star, instead it was a 3/4th star (i guess) because it fit my dads 3/4th open end wrench.
