best place for the oil feed is right above the oil filter. there is a little threaded port with a plug in it. pop that out and put a fitting in and run your hose from there. For a return you can go directly in to the front of the pan behind the harmonic balancer, or in to the timing cover. Just remember the feed needs to have gravity moving the oil downhill. - jay
