Picked up a few things last night from the local powdercoating guy, front bumper support and the support beam done in a gloss black.
Oil return fitting welded on and coated gloss black along with the vtec solenoid heat shield.
Didn't waste time so on went the heat shield and the oil pan.
Hanging for now.
Rotated it back up after an hour and will be sitting like this (covered) for the next 24 hours.
Removed the driver side engine mount bracket and timing chain tensioner cover to get sent off for some sandblasting and coating.
That's it for tonight ladies and gents! been busy building furniture, cleaning and organizing a few things for the new house.

Quick question my boosted pals.
How/where do I run the oil feed line?
Do I buy a sand which plate and go off a port from there?
Is there a specific brand that makes good sandwich plates?
Or
Can I run it from the stock oem oil pressure sensor port?
i personally have always used a T off the cylinder head port, one for my turbo feed and other for oil pressure gaugeOriginally Posted by mnc1408

I have mine T'd into the stock oil pressure sensor port.
Do you guys have a picture of the T piece? Would going through there be filtered oil?
Also what size is the fitting.

Or you guys can just link me to the item itself, that might be the easier choice
All the right fittings. (BSPT<NPT, NPT<BSPT, & a 1/8" Tee)
One is a 1/8" BSTP to NPT, the other is NPT to BSTP.
Our stock sender has BSPT (British Std. Pipe Thread) while most gauges are NPT (National Pipe Thread), so we need a male BSPT with a Female NPT to screw into the block. And also a Male NPT with a Female BSPT to screw the stock sender into the Tee fitting.

Holy heck, that is so confusing haha.
I kind of get it. I'll head down to the plumbing and fitting place and get them to piece me the parts.
You can kind of see mine in this picture:
I have a coupler type fitting to adapt to the BSPT to NPT and then an NPT T is there, and an adaptor fitting to go from NPT to AN for the feed line.
Martin, looking at yours where does the turbo feel line come from? It looks like the end of the T is the pressure gauge, and the middle part of the T is the stock sensor, no?
