    ok, heres a few pics of my setup, the water lines have banjo fittings on the turbo to a metal pipe going to a rubber hose (one hose is too big and looks dodge as haha, will be replacing with a braided line going into the cold start temp sensor at the back of the head)


    oil feed line, i used a braided line, easy to get and cheep, oil drain needs to be as straight as possible as the drain doesnt pump out it falls with gravity and as big as the outlet as possible would help to get the oil back into the sump, the sump will need to be modified for a drain or you can get a sump from a motor that had an oil cooler on it.


    Hope that helped, need anymore info/pics just ask

    i have a braided line from stock pressure sender on the block to the turbo, then 3/4" rubber return into sump, make sure this stays close to the biggest size possible, i had it smaller and caused banking up issues with lots of oil burning! water is 2 rubber lines tee'd from the heater points. i have pics of enigne bay in my thread build, dunno how well it shows it.
