I'm looking for a place to tap into to get oil to my turbo. I know i have seached, I DON'T HAVE A STOCK OIL PAN. So I don't that the spot on the oil pan to tap into. So my next guess is to tap in it at the oil pressure sending unit. Is there any one that make adapter 16mmx 1.5mm male to female with a an-4 for feeding the turbo?

The pan that i have already has a -10an fitting welded to it. I have no spot to get the feed line from the oil pan. So i want to see it any one had a good idea where to get it from besides the oil pan. Anyone run it from the oil pressure sending unit?

is the oil adapter to go from the block 12mm to 1/8 NPT female. Then you do a male male 1/8NPT to -4 AN Nipple.

And Yes, pretty much anywhere that makes -AN fittings will have an adaptor in stock
On my old LS6 I just used an Earls M16 to -4 fitting for my oil feed taking the place of the OEM oil pressure sender.
There are other galleries you could use though if stuck. Really, finding a feed is very easy

Cant say I'm familiar with that block.
But I'll assume it has the same main oil gallery bungs on the block. Almost any of which could be used.
Or as already stated the one for the OEM oil pressure sender.
But you also havent stated what oil pan. If the oil pan requires a remote oil filter, then again it should be very easy to get a takeoff from there.

The remote oil filter housing will probably be the easiest way. I'm going to try to make my own adapter with a old oil pressure sensor that I have. It that doesn't work i just in the the filter housing. thanks for the help
