Well i read everywhere 5/8 id is the smallest you want for your oil return so i ended up using a 1/2in bung.....Might have made a mistake on that because i need a 1/2 in tube and turbo flange fitting.

Im thinking of getting this(below)) and going to get a brass barb fitting? I dont know if they have the thread pitch any thoughts. I cannon weld only coathanger braze sadly.

On the feed line i finally found out that a (rb25 series 2 turbo is a journal bearing) so i guess i need the .60 restrictor but is there a kit out there that is a "bolt in" .

I might T just to start i hate that idea tho had bad experience once.

Or the cheap route just go to local fastenall and get em to fab. me one up real quick_ REQUIREMENTS?? heat/psi/braided AN EARLS???? im really not savy on lines :facepalm: CHEAPest route that will work safely!
