Default Mocal Oil Scavange pump mounting questions

So i planned on mounting my mocal pump on my frame which would been mounting it vertical and now my charge pipe is in the way so thats out of the question unless its mounted on the outside of the frame... So im wondering if i can mount it horizontally under the cab, was just curious if this would cause problems with the pump?

Trying to get this stuff mounted and done this week, so any help is appreciated!

Thanks!

when i had mine, I ran it in both vertical and horizontal positions. I would definitely make sure the the oil gravity drains into the pump.

Use a flapping check valve too.

It will for sure be mounted below the turbo outlet, (around 2ft below actually lol)...

What would the check valve be doing? I was told in another thread i wouldnt need a check valve since its mounted below the turbo?

Would the check valve be mounted after the return pump before it goes back into the motor so oil doesnt go back down the to pump? Where can i get one of these valve? any links?

thanks!
