    here is the conclusion I have come to, I'm going to drill and tap the fuel pump blockoff, and run a 3/8" line, ither copper or steel, around to the blockoff from the turbo. as long as the exit is lower than the turbo, it shouldn't matter. I think I'm gonna do that tomorrow.

    the return line should be above the oil or it will not drain out of the turbo very good

    WAIT, I'll have to look but my oil cap might be JUST lower than the turbo, it has a 5/8" fitting on it for hose, MABY
