ok... tryin to finish up my build (no I don't have a build thread...lol)
twin 67's, journal bearing style
what size -an line/fittings do I use for the feeds?
also do I need a restrictor being that I am using a high pressure/volume melling oil pump?
I've read that journal bearing turbos don't use restrictors, but in my mind... using a high pressure/volume melling, they tend to run 70-90psi at WOT. So I'm thinking I will need a restrictor due to oil flowing too fast through turbos in which not actually allowing it to cool the turbos. and possibly the high pressure blowing seals out.... ????
Specs:
410ci
twin 67's journal brng
dual 3.5" dp's to 4" out
dual -4an feeds w/ no restrictors ( for now unless told differently)
dual -10an drains to front of pan
19 row oil cooler w/ remote mount filter
Thanks in Advance guys!!!

soooooo...... -3 or -4 ? If I stay with the -4, what should I look for to know that i would need restrictors? wait til oil blows out seals, or temps of turbo? was thinking installing a temp gauge inline on oil drain about 2" from turbo.
