LE5 turbo feeds and drains
Just wondering where everyone is getting their coolant and oil from and where you're draining it. I know there is an Allen bolt in the block that can be removed for oil feed correct? Then are you guys draining into the oil pan or tapping the block? I read oil pan is a no-no due to the pressure exuded by the pump and will wear out the turbo much quicker. How about coolant T fittings? Thanks!

Mine is in the pan too, no problem with it. I got zzps oil pan.
Oil feed from the plug on the back of the block, zzp sells the fitting for this.
Coolant feed i have coming from the drain plug in the water pump, i got the fitting on ebay.
Coolant drain i have the lnf thermostat housing so it has a banjo fitting for return there.
