Mock up pics of APS turbo oil scavanging can

Heres some early pics of my APS scavanging can that i made to fit 1/2 above my B&M tranny pan .As you can see from the pics and my use of a weed wacking string LOL the draining point is now about 1'' about the oil pan drain bolt. I also lightly grinded one of the 4 passanger side exhaust tubo housing studs that was hitting the top of the turbo oil feed bango line which was only letting me ((only)) clock the turbo oil return flange to 5:30 or 6:30. Its now at the optium 6:00 spot. I also had some (AN 10 steel fittings) machined open to 1/2'' and shorten them and had them silver soldered into the OEM APS oil flanges, so there as high up into the turbo as possible to optimize the drain angle to my new can useing 1/2'' inner dia teflon inner core oil drain hoses .I also had a new drivers side coolant line made because the OEM APS one on mine and from others that ive seen are all kinked right by the oil feed port on the block.This is just my mock up can which will have a vent port right above here the oil enters it and will be all boxed in. I'll also be welding in a little 1/2 tall divider in the middle of this can to help direct the oil to each side of the vac ports that will be welded in the bottom of each side for each of the turbo drains but can overtop it for the engine shut down turbo drain. All of the can AN 10 fittings will all be opened up to 1/2'' too Theres nother like laying on your back for hours at a time doing something like this either LOL
