Post pics of oil line tap

Just curious to see pics of the different areas you can tap for a oil line for a turbo'd lsj. I'm referring to the "dimple" on the block, the oil pan, and i guess the hahn oil solution. Last one is not that big a deal though. Thx for the help!

i do not have one. I haven't even started my build yet. But I am planning on dismantling my car and sending the parts off this sunday (sorry josh if you're reading this!).

I wouldn't mind seeing pics and maybe having people relay their personal experiences with why they chose either direction.

I have most all my parts except the injectors/harness, and the intake mani. I might just say **** it and get the rdfabs mani. The shop I'm going to is going to fab a lot of my stuff. And I ran into a fine gentleman on here that is giving me an rsfs for a good price.

btw, (don't take this the wrong way) but how long does the hose have to be to reach the oil pan? I bought one that must be 10" or so. Just not sure if that'll work.

only reason I didn't get the injectors is because I wasn't sure if I was gonna dish out the cash for 1000cc injectors and run e85. Then i decided to stay with 80's, 93, and an rsfs.

except we went with the left access like the lnf's do from the factory, instead of the one circled. it's plumbed into the oil pan where that big point comes out of the block right above the oil pan. most people just do the oil pan because it's easier to take off and get machined

and make sure you use a good crush washer on the feed port. mine was leaking a wee bit even with copper washers, had to go back and put in crush washers

no pics, it's just an -an fitting and braided hose running to the oil return port on the turbo, the picture wouldn't show you anything of substance
