STS oil return into oil level sensor?

Has anyone with an STS Kit run the return line to the port for the oil level sensor?

No one knows if the pump is strong enough to fight the oil level?

I believe someone had another thread about this but I am not sure...go to the search and see if it is there or not but I believe everyone with the sts kit is running it back into the oil cap in the valve cover or tapping the oil pan...I have it in the valve cover but soon it will go into the oil pan.

The pumps are free, all you need to do is call STS and buy a turbo kit.

Does anyone know how far below the oil level the oil level sensor is?

you cant buy STS's pump seperate, they wont sell it to you unless its in their kit. You can get a shurflo or a mocal pump to do the job.
