There is one forsale in the forsale section. And do a search on OFI before you buy

I have the LS1 kit and it goes into the front lip of the oil pan, its almost level with the outlet on the bottom of the turbo... Im not sure what the LT1 kit looks like but the turbo sits pretty damn low on LS1's and draining could be an issue if its gotta go up hill at all. being LT1s have rounded steel pans im not sure where it could plumb.

Good question to ask though!

you can get oil to the turbo from the oil sending unit behind the intake manifold. just pull it off and go to the hardware store and make it into two ports.....easy

Right above the oil filter is a 1/8NPT hole (remove plug) for the oil feed.

I believe its actually on the block, so cooler or not, it doesnt matter.
