Help guys!

Where are the options (places in the engine) to oil feed the turbos?

I ask because I will use a oil cooler, and I already will use the Improved Racing Oil Coller adapter....

I saw that there's a feeling behind the intake on top of the block... is it possible to use this with a Y fitting to feed oil to turbos? What do you think?

Thanks guys

There are many places to take an oil feed from.

And yes you could use the takeoff normally used for the OEM pressure sender at the top/rear of the valley.

Are you already using the two ports on the oil cooler adapter for something else?

I will use with pressure and temperature gauges... and I prefer to get the oil to the turbos, from the last place that oil comes... after he already pass through all the engine, because if I start to have some flow problems, the turbos will give problem first than the engine... at least is what I expect lol

Another question guys, I have here a T-56, 2002 if I'm not wrong, and I like to know what oil do you recommend to use in this gearbox?
Thanks!

From a face to face conversation with a very well known trans builder that, thankfully, is local to me. I asked if one Dexron is better than another, his response:

Whatever is on sale

Nice to know!

I found AC Delco Dexron III here in Brazil for about US$10,00/liter

How much liter go in the T-56? (My gearbox is empty because come in a ship to me lol).

I made more progress in the car this weekend... left exhaust manifold is almost ready... I still will put the turbo 10mm down, and do a intake to the filter, to gain more space in the front of the turbos...
The right exhaust manifold is not ready, but we already start.

Here is a view of the left exhaust manifold: there's not much space left between the exhaust and steering linkage... (5mm between them)


And here is a view of how they should be in the car, but the left will be down to the same high of the right side of the car.

capacity is about 3.5 liters, but easiest is remove the fill plug on the side and fill until fluid comes out.

It's quite common to overfill to 4 litres via the reverse light switch hole if necessary
