Here ya go, Tom.
These are -10AN lines from each turbo into a "Y", then into the scavenge pump. Out of the scavenge pump is a -10AN into the oil pan.

Here is a shot of the banjos out of the turbo that has a -10AN male silver soldered so I could adapt the AN lines.






Here is the "Y" from the turbos, going into the pump. Then the line back to the pan with a check valve in it.

02blackbeauty - how long have you run the screens on your car? Just asking because I've been unning them for a year or more, driving few times a week, and no issues with beating up turbo or engine.

I've been running them from about a year and a half with no issues. However, I did just put a LS2 pan on the car so I can have more room to get some filters on it.


Tom, You can still use the same idea and Y it is a single line into the pan.

I'm thinking of getting -10an fittings that are threaded on one end and put a 90deg fitting coming out of the turbo and SS braided line straight to the pan. Just the same lay out with better parts

I too used a similar fitting off my turbo like the above. I will be using a -10AN 90* degree fitting to the pan and -10AN 90* degree from the pan as you can see below...welded -10 AN fitting off of the pan. I used a -4AN 45* feed fitting off the pan and will be using a -4 AN 90* from the turbo feed. Hope this helps.

Yes 02 something like that would work. I have seen those fittings before I just need to break down and do it. The biggest thing with that is how tall is it? And than add a -10 90deg fitting on top of it. I don't want the fitting on the turbo low than the fitting in the pan. Does this make sense? I wish the drain hole in the turbo was tapped so I could just thread a fitting right into the turbo. Hell with that been said can you tap the turbo it self?

As long as there is enough material, should be no problem.
