out of idea's(oil issue)
 
Well i am out of idea's and i'm hoping someone has one on my issue.
I have a rear mounted turbo on my LT1. I am running a Mocal oil pump. I just rebuilt the turbo and mounted the oil pump as low as possible to try to get the oil from the turbo to gravity feed to the pump. I was unsuccessful and oil is still pushing out the exhaust side during hard acceleration. I cannot mount the pump any lower and i cannot move the turbo up any higher. Does anyone have an idea how i can fix this problem??? Please help...

Is there a restrictor in place?

nope just a small 1/8" check valve. Do these scavenge pump only push oil? I mean if they don't suck oil in then push it out then how is everyone getting them low enough for the oil to gravity feed to the pump?
